The effect of a targeted mobilization program applied after cesarean surgery on care outcomes: a randomized controlled study.
Trial report in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to determine the effect of a targeted mobilization program applied after cesarean surgery on postoperative recovery outcomes.
methodsA randomized controlled trial was conducted with 64 women undergoing elective cesarean section at a training and research hospital in Central Anatolia, Turkey. Participants were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n=32) or a control group (n=32). All women received routine care, while the experimental group additionally received structured mobilization training beginning 6 h postoperatively and continuing for 48 h. Data were collected using the Preliminary Assessment Form, Personal Information Form, Gastrointestinal Function Form, Abdominal Distension Diagnosis Form, Walking Schedule Form, Visual Analog Scale, and Latch, Audible swallowing, Type of nipple, Comfort, and Hold Breastfeeding Diagnosis and Assessment Scale.
resultsWomen in the experimental group demonstrated significantly faster gastrointestinal recovery, with shorter times to first gas expulsion and first defecation. Abdominal distension scores at 12, 24, and 48 h postoperatively were consistently lower in the experimental group. Pain scores were also significantly reduced at 24 and 48 h. In addition, the experimental group showed a shorter milk let-down time and higher Latch, Audible swallowing, Type of nipple, Comfort, and Hold breastfeeding scores, indicating better early breastfeeding performance. These differences represent clinically meaningful improvements across multiple recovery indicators.
conclusionThe targeted mobilization program applied after cesarean surgery enhanced overall postoperative recovery by accelerating bowel function, reducing abdominal distension and pain, and improving breastfeeding outcomes. These findings support the integration of structured mobilization strategies into routine post-cesarean care.
