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 explore the impact of a symptomics-based transitional care program on mental health and quality of life in perimenopausal women after total hysterectomy. Methodology: This retrospective study was conducted using medical records from 131 perimenopausal women who underwent total hysterectomy at the Huzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital between April 2024 and August 2025. The participants were divided into an observation group (n=67) receiving the symptomics-based transitional care program and a control group (n=64) receiving the conventional care program, based on the postoperative nursing regimen. The two groups were compared in terms of scores on the modified Kupperman Index, the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 (PFDI-20), and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Nursing satisfaction was assessed in both groups. Results: At six months after intervention, the scores of the modified Kupperman Index, SAS, SDS, PSQI and PFDI-20 in the observation group were significantly lower, while the FSFI score was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the nursing satisfaction between the two groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: The symptomics-based transitional care program is associated with improved postoperative mental health and quality of life in perimenopausal women undergoing total hysterectomy.
