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: Heart failure is a clinical syndrome that has a large financial burden on the health care system and communities. One of the types of care provided to these patients is home care. The present study aimed to determine the effect of mental health education on resilience and psychosocial adjustment among patients with heart failure under the care of Home Counseling and Nursing Services. Methods: This randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted on 24 patients with heart failure referred to Shahid Rajaei Heart Center, Tehran, Iran in April to June 2020. Patients eligible to enter the study were divided into two intervention and control groups by permuted block randomization. The demographic form, resilience and psychosocial adjustment to illness scale were completed. The intervention group received mental health education in the patients' houses for 6 weeks (one session each week). Each session lasted 60 minutes. The post-test was done two weeks after the end of the study. The control group received routine care. Data analysis was performed using through SPSS software version 19 using Chi-square test, paired sample t-test, and independent samples t-test. P<0.05 was statistically significant. Results: Comparison of the mean of psychosocial adjustment total score between the intervention and control groups after the intervention showed statistically significant differences (P=0.02). Also, there was a significant difference between the two groups in the mean of resilience total score after the intervention (P=0.001). Conclusion: The results indicated that mental health education in patients with heart failure who had received home care nursing could enhance their resilience and psychosocial adjustment.
