Application of new media-based home nursing intervention for stroke-related depression patients: a retrospective cohort study.

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
Introduction: Persistent functional impairment and psychological distress are common after stroke, highlighting the need for effective post-discharge nursing strategies. We performed a retrospective cohort study evaluating the associations of a family-centered, new-media continuous nursing intervention on stroke recovery outcomes. Methods: The study included 107 patients with first-ever ischemic stroke who received either routine post-discharge care or a family-centered new-media continuous nursing intervention. Functional status, depressive symptoms, and quality of life were assessed at baseline and 6 months. Rehabilitation adherence, platform engagement indicators, and selected serum biomarkers related to neuroplasticity and inflammation were analyzed. Multivariable models were used to adjust for baseline clinical factors. Results: At 6 months, the intervention group showed significantly greater improvements in Barthel Index scores, larger reductions in Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scores, and greater gains in quality of life compared with routine care. Rehabilitation compliance and medication adherence were higher in the intervention group. Within this group, greater platform engagement was associated with larger improvements in depressive symptoms and quality of life. In addition, patients receiving the intervention exhibited greater increases in serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor and endothelial progenitor cell counts, along with more pronounced reductions in IL-6 and TNF-α. Participation in the intervention remained independently associated with functional and psychological improvement after adjustment. Discussion: Family-centered new-media continuous nursing is associated with improved functional independence, psychological recovery, adherence behaviors, and favorable biological changes in patients with ischemic stroke.
