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
Purpose: To investigate the effects of positional nursing combined with positive suggestions on anxiety, procedural outcomes, and patient comfort in patients undergoing painless gastroscopy. Patients and Methods: This retrospective cohort study enrolled 153 patients undergoing sedated gastroscopy between March 2024 and August 2025. Patients were assigned to the conventional nursing group (n=73, March-October 2024) or the comprehensive nursing group (n=80, November 2024-August 2025). The comprehensive group received individualized positioning optimization and standardized positive psychological suggestions. Primary outcomes included State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State subscale (STAI-S), examination success rate, examination duration, and General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ). Secondary outcomes included hemodynamic stability, adverse events, recovery time, and patient satisfaction. Results: Baseline characteristics were comparable between groups. The comprehensive nursing group demonstrated significantly lower STAI-S scores (43.23±7.68 vs 48.67±8.45, Conclusion: Positional nursing combined with positive suggestion may help reduce pre-procedural anxiety, improve hemodynamic stability, decrease adverse events, and enhance patient comfort and satisfaction in painless gastroscopy. This non-pharmacological intervention shows promise for integration into routine endoscopy nursing protocols.
