Retrospective analysis of the clinical value of targeted nursing using a game-based model in children undergoing auricular reconstruction for congenital microtia.

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
Objective: To retrospectively evaluate the effects of targeted nursing centered on a game-based model on self-concept, anxiety, and quality of life in children undergoing auricular reconstruction for congenital microtia. Methods: This retrospective observational study included medical records from children with congenital microtia who underwent auricular reconstruction between January 2022 and December 2025. Medical records were categorized into a control group and an intervention group according to the perioperative nursing model documented during hospitalization. The control group received routine nursing care, whereas the intervention group received routine nursing care combined with game-based nursing. Data from the Piers-Harris Children Self-Concept Scale (CSCS), Screen for Child Anxiety-Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED), and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL 4.0) scores routinely recorded at admission and discharge during hospitalization were retrospectively extracted from the nursing records. Results: A total of 70 children were included, with 35 in the routine nursing group and 35 in the game-based nursing group. At admission, no statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in CSCS, SCARED, or PedsQL 4.0 scores ( Conclusion: This retrospective analysis suggests that targeted nursing using a game-based model may be associated with improved perioperative psychological outcomes, particularly reduced anxiety, in children undergoing auricular reconstruction for congenital microtia.
