Experiential Aspects in Patients With Permanent Urostomy Following Bladder Cancer Surgery: Meta-Synthesis of Qualitative Studies.
Synthesis in Nursing open, 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
aimThis systematic review and synthesis qualitatively explores the home life experiences of patients with a permanent urostomy following radical cystectomy. It aims to inform the development of tailored health management plans and facilitate effective intervention strategies based on patient needs.
designThe quality of the included studies was appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative Research, and the findings were synthesised using the meta-synthesis method.
methodsWe conducted a systematic literature review of qualitative studies published in both Chinese and English from the database's inception to July 2023. The databases searched for qualitative research on the home care experiences of patients with permanent urostomies after bladder cancer surgery included Web of Science, EMBASE, PubMed, PsycINFO, CINAHL, CNKI, Wanfang Database and VIP Database. Two trained researchers independently used qualitative assessment and review tools for quality assessment and thematic synthesis tools for data analysis and integration.
resultsSeven studies were included, and four themes were summarised: physiological change; love and belonging; lack of knowledge and reinventing a new life. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: This systematic review and meta-synthesis enables us to better understand and give necessary help and guidance to patients according to their actual situation, to solve the problems they face in daily life, to provide emotional, social and other support, to promote their self-adaptation, to enhance their self-management ability and ultimately to improve their quality of life.
