Enhancing short-term recovery after gastric cancer surgery: an information-motivation-behavioral skills (IMB) model with nutritional support.
Trial report in Future oncology (London, England), 2025. 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
aimsTo evaluate the short-term efficacy of an Information - Motivation - Behavioral Skills (IMB) model-based intervention combined with perioperative nutritional support in improving postoperative recovery in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this randomized controlled trial, 250 gastric cancer patients were allocated to either an intervention group (IMB model + individualized nutritional support, n = 125) or a control group (standard care, n = 125). The 15-day intervention targeted key recovery dimensions: sleep quality, nutritional status, pain, psychological well-being, and quality of life (QoL).
resultsCompared to controls, the intervention group showed significantly greater improvements in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores (-2.16 ± 0.74 vs. -1.32 ± 0.69), serum albumin levels (+5.56 ± 1.43 g/L vs. +2.03 ± 1.21 g/L), and global QoL based on the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30; +21.14 ± 6.91 vs. +9.04 ± 5.87; all P < 0.001). Pain (Visual Analog Scale), anxiety (Self-Rating Anxiety Scale), and depression (Self-Rating Depression Scale) scores also improved significantly.
conclusionIMB-guided psychosocial intervention with tailored nutritional support significantly enhanced short-term recovery. Further studies are needed to validate long-term efficacy.
