Identification of user personas for self-management in patients with permanent enterostomy to improve personalized nursing practice: a descriptive qualitative study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundThis study constructs a user persona coding framework for self-management among patients with permanent enterostomy, identifying behavioral characteristics, and nursing needs to develop targeted interventions.
methodsA total of 18 patients (n = 18) were recruited via purposive sampling. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were performed, and Colaizzi’s method was applied to analyze the resulting data; this involved extracting factual labels, integrating common characteristics, and summarizing labeling dimensions, with the ultimate goal of developing patient personas.
resultsA five-dimensional coding framework was established, covering disease-related medical information, daily life, medical resource accessibility, social support, psychological state. Four self-management types were identified, including proactive (younger, high education, active learning, strong self-efficacy), dependent-regressive (elderly, low education, passive dependence), Fragmented Knowledge-Guided Practice(middle-aged, fragmented knowledge, improper operations), and Avoidant Coping (elderly, low acceptance, avoidant behaviors).
conclusionsThis study identifies the multi-dimensional characteristics and typological differences of self-management behaviors in patients with permanent enterostomy, providing a reference for personalized nursing interventions to enhance self-management efficacy and improve patients’ quality of life. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
