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
backgroundDysphagia is a common complication in patients with brain tumors, which has a profound adverse impact on patients' health status and quality of life. However, there is a relative lack of research on the rehabilitation of dysphagia in brain tumor patients, especially regarding the role and effectiveness of nurse-led multimodal interventions in the rehabilitation of dysphagia in brain tumor patients, which lacks systematic assessment and in-depth discussion.
aimThis study aimed to evaluate the role and effectiveness of a nurse-led multimodal intervention in improving swallowing function and quality of life in brain tumor patients with dysphagia.
methodsIn this study, a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design was used to select 120 dysphagia patients among brain tumor patients admitted to our hospital during the period of January 2024 to May 2024 as the study subjects, and they were stratified and randomly divided into an intervention group (n = 60) and a control group (n = 60). While the control group received conventional nursing care and treatment protocols, the intervention group received a nurse-led multimodal intervention program, including personalized swallowing training, nutritional support, psychological care, and a family-participatory rehabilitation program, which was developed and dynamically adjusted by nurses, rehabilitation therapists, and dietitians. Differences in data before and after the intervention were analyzed using the paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and between-group comparisons were made using the independent samples t-test or Mann-Whitney U test.
resultsBoth the intervention and control groups showed improvement in swallowing function among the patients. The Kubota drinking test score, Saito's swallowing function grading, and the quality of life scores for patients in the intervention group showed a significant enhancement compared to those in the control group (P < 0.05), indicating that the intervention was more effective than the control. When compared within groups, all scores in both the intervention and control groups improved gradually with the time of intervention (P < 0.05). The improvement was significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group.
conclusionThis study demonstrates that a nurse-led multimodal intervention is significantly effective in improving swallowing function and quality of life in patients with brain tumors. The intervention provides comprehensive rehabilitation support for patients through multidisciplinary collaboration and personalized care and has certain clinical promotion value.
