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 Patients with stroke and multimorbidity face complex rehabilitation challenges during the hospital-to-home transition. This study evaluated a smart healthcare-enabled Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model integrated with traditional Chinese and Western nursing care for its effects on discharge readiness and recovery outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty stroke patients with 2 or more comorbidities admitted between January and June 2025 were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n=30) or control group (n=30). The control group received routine nursing care, while the experimental group received an IMB-based transitional care program supported by smart healthcare technology and integrated nursing interventions. Outcomes included discharge readiness, quality of life (Stroke-Specific Quality of Life [SS-QOL]), functional recovery (Barthel Index, Fugl-Meyer Assessment, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale), and 30-day readmission rate. RESULTS The experimental group showed significantly higher discharge-readiness scores (P<0.05), improved SS-QOL at 1 month (171.20±26.21 vs 146.55±31.25; P<0.001) and 3 months (186.25±31.35 vs 150.21±21.34; P<0.001), and better functional outcomes across all scales (all P<0.05). The 30-day readmission rate was lower in the experimental group (6.6% vs 26.6%; P=0.041). CONCLUSIONS A smart healthcare-supported, IMB-guided transitional care package integrated with traditional Chinese and Western nursing care was associated with improved discharge readiness, quality of life, and functional recovery, with fewer early readmissions. Because the intervention was multicomponent, the independent contribution of the IMB framework cannot be isolated.
