Effects of Positive Event Recording on Rehabilitation Outcomes in Elderly Patients with Coronary Heart Disease and Anxiety.
Trial report in Clinical interventions in aging, 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
Background: Elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) are prone to psychological disorders during treatment. Strengthening psychological well-being can improve rehabilitation outcomes. This study aimed to explore the effects of recording positive events on anxiety, psychological capital, treatment compliance, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in elderly CHD patients with anxiety symptoms. Methods: A total of 309 elderly CHD patients with anxiety were enrolled and randomly assigned to an intervention group (n=154) and a control group (n=155). After the intervention, assessments were conducted using the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the Positive Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PPQ), and a treatment compliance scale, along with collection of clinical indicators and data on MACE. Primary outcomes were changes in anxiety and treatment compliance behaviors. Secondary outcomes included changes in the positive psychological capital scores, clinical indicators, and incidence of MACE. Results: The intervention group showed significantly lower anxiety scores than the control group at the end of the intervention (3 months after discharge) and the end of follow-up period (6 months after discharge) ( Conclusion: Recording positive events can alleviate anxiety, enhance psychological capital and treatment compliance, reduce the occurrence of MACE, and effectively improve rehabilitation outcomes in elderly CHD patients.
