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

objectiveThis study aimed to develop and validate a personalized postoperative care pathway for gynecological oncology patients based on precision medicine principles, exploring effective strategies to improve patient engagement, self-management capacity, and long-term recovery outcomes.

methodsA prospective controlled trial was conducted, randomizing 80 postoperative gynecological cancer patients into an intervention group (n = 40) and a control group (n = 40). The control group received standard postoperative care, while the intervention group underwent a multi-module personalized care pathway incorporating the Transtheoretical Model (TTM), Patient Activation Measure (PAM), Shared Decision-Making (SDM) framework, and assessment of digital engagement and adaptability. Intervention components included collaborative rehabilitation goal-setting, digital platform tracking, stage-matched behavioral interventions, SDM support, health empowerment training, and remote psychological counseling. Scale-based outcomes were assessed over 6 months (PAM, SDM, and Health Empowerment Scale [HES]), while survival analysis (disease-free survival [DFS] and event-free survival [EFS]) was conducted over a 12-month follow-up period.

resultsThe intervention group demonstrated significantly superior outcomes in self-management capacity (PAM score: 71.77 ± 6.9 vs. 63.01 ± 7.2, P < 0.05), shared decision-making ability (SDM score: 72.73 ± 6.8 vs. 61.54 ± 7.1, P < 0.001), and health empowerment (HES score: 35.7 ± 3.2 vs. 29.6 ± 4.1, P < 0.001). Notably, 67.5% of intervention patients reached the “action” or “maintenance” stage of health behavior change, compared to only 35% in the control group. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed significantly prolonged 12-month disease-free survival (DFS) in the intervention group (10.37 vs. 7.32 months, P < 0.05), with Cox regression identifying personalized care as an independent protective factor (HR = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.34–0.94, P = 0.028).

conclusionThe precision nursing-based postoperative intervention pathway significantly enhanced gynecological oncology patients’ self-management capacity, treatment engagement, and long-term survival outcomes, demonstrating strong feasibility and scalability. This study provides empirical support for transforming postoperative care into an integrated system of behavioral empowerment, digital support, and collaborative participation.
