1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundPrevious studies have shown that one of the methods to improve the quality of life and satisfaction of heart failure patients is self-care education. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of forum-based and mobile-based education on self-care and life satisfaction in heart failure patients referred to the Heart Center. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis quasiexperimental study included two intervention groups: forum-based training and mobile-based training, along with a control group. The study included 90 patients. Participants in the study were selected by convenience sampling and randomly assigned to three groups of 30. Among the tools used to gather data were demographic surveys, Diner's life satisfaction, and the self-care of heart failure patients. SCHFIV 6.2. Along with standard education and medication treatment, the intervention groups received a self-care education package. All that was given to the control group was standard hospital instruction. SPSS software was used to examine the data. Data were analyzed with software using Fisher's exact test, Chi-square,

resultsIn the case groups, the mean scores of self-care and life satisfaction in the post-test and 3-month follow-up stages were significantly higher than before the intervention (

conclusionThe findings of the study demonstrated that continuous postdischarge education, even virtually, and increased patient management interactions by the healthcare team can enhance self-care scores and life satisfaction in heart failure patients.
