Effectiveness of evidence-based nursing interventions in the management of patients with schizophrenia.
Article in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder characterized by persistent symptoms, functional impairment, and a high risk of relapse. Evidence-based nursing (EBN) is a patient-centered approach that applies clinical research to improve treatment adherence, reduce symptom severity, and support recovery. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of EBN interventions in improving clinical and functional outcomes in patients with schizophrenia. Material and methods: This retrospective study, conducted from January 2021 to December 2023, included 156 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia based on DSM-5 or ICD-10 criteria. Patients were divided into an observation group (n = 80) receiving EBN interventions and a control group (n = 76) receiving standard nursing care. EBN protocols included psychoeducation, behavioral rehabilitation, social skills training, family support, and medication supervision. Outcome measures included the Social Disability Screening Schedule (SDSS), Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), Modified Rehabilitation Status Scale (MRSS), and medication adherence rates. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 27.0, with a p-value of <0.05 indicating significance. Results: Baseline characteristics were comparable between groups. After intervention, the observation group demonstrated significant improvements in SDSS and BPRS scores compared to the control group, reflecting enhanced social functionality and symptom management (p < 0.001). MRSS indicators, including dependency, social function, activity ability, and symptom behavior, also showed greater improvements in the observation group (p < 0.001). Medication adherence was significantly higher in the observation group, with higher complete adherence rates (40.0% vs. 19.7%) and fewer cases of non-adherence (25.0% vs. 47.4%, p = 0.003). Conclusions: Evidence-based nursing interventions improve social functionality, symptom management, recovery states, and medication adherence in schizophrenia, emphasizing their value in optimizing clinical outcomes.
