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

Background: Stroke remains a leading cause of disability worldwide, significantly impairing motor function, activities of daily living (ADL), swallowing function, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Comprehensive nursing-led interventions may improve these outcomes, yet empirical evidence from controlled trials in Indian hospital settings is limited. Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of integrated nursing strategies on clinical outcomes and HRQoL among patients with stroke. Methods: A true experimental pretest-posttest control group design was adopted. Thirty patients with acute stroke admitted to selected hospitals in Salem were randomly assigned to an experimental group ( Results: Post-intervention, the experimental group demonstrated statistically significant improvements in blood pressure and blood sugar control ( Conclusion: Integrated nursing strategies were effective in improving both clinical outcomes and HRQoL among patients with stroke. The findings support the feasibility and potential efficacy of structured nursing-led interventions, warranting validation through a large-scale trial.
