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
purposeTo assess the impact of personalized nursing care plans, based on the modified abPG-SGA, on postoperative nutritional status in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery.
methodsA retrospective cohort analysis was conducted on clinical data from colorectal cancer surgical patients admitted to a single center. Patients were divided into a routine nursing care group and a personalized nursing care group assessed under the modified abPG-SGA. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were defined, and nursing methods, data collection, and statistical analysis were detailed. Various parameters including demographic features, disease characteristics, surgical outcomes, gastrointestinal complications, postoperative complications, nutritional markers, dietary intake, serum electrolyte levels, length of hospital stay, and functional recovery were compared between the two groups. Based on the composite nutritional score, patients in the personalized care group were stratified into three risk grades, guiding the intensity of nutritional support. Clinical response to intensive support was assessed within 7 days post-intervention. Statistical analysis included independent-samples t-test, chi-square test, and multivariable logistic regression models adjusting for age, BMI, sex, ASA score, comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia), tumor location, and treatment time period.
resultsThe personalized nursing care group showed significantly improved bowel function recovery time, reduced incidence of postoperative wound infection and urinary tract infection, improved nutritional markers and dietary intake, and maintenance of specific serum electrolyte levels compared to the routine nursing care group. Additionally, the personalized nursing care plans were associated with a reduction in the length of hospital stay and improved postoperative recovery parameters. Furthermore, risk stratification using the modified abPG-SGA demonstrated strong alignment with the intensity of nutritional support and predicted clinical response, with higher-risk patients exhibiting greater improvement. Multivariable regression analysis confirmed that personalized nursing care was independently associated with significantly lower odds of surgical site infection (adjusted OR = 0.26, 95% CI: 0.08-0.85, P = 0.025) and urinary tract infection (adjusted OR = 0.17, 95% CI: 0.03-0.79, P = 0.022), as well as a significant reduction in hospital stay (adjusted β = -1.92 days, 95% CI: -3.31 to -0.53, P = 0.007). Furthermore, personalized nursing care independently predicted improved postoperative prealbumin levels (adjusted β = 29.1 mg/L, 95% CI: 9.5-48.7, P = 0.004) and serum protein levels (adjusted β = 3.9 g/L, 95% CI: 1.1-6.7, P = 0.007) after adjustment for confounders.
conclusionPersonalized nursing care plans based on the modified abPG-SGA were associated with improved postoperative nutritional status and recovery outcomes in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. However, due to the non-randomized retrospective design, causal inference cannot be made, and findings should be interpreted as associations. Further prospective randomized controlled trials are warranted to confirm these findings.
