1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundGastrointestinal surgical acute abdomen conditions. These conditions not only cause significant suffering to patients but also increase psychological stress for both patients and their families.

aimTo investigate communication characteristics in gastrointestinal surgical acute abdomen cases (such as appendicitis and pancreatitis) and explore optimization pathways.

methodsEighty-two patients with gastrointestinal surgical acute abdomen (including appendicitis and pancreatitis) admitted to the hospital between November 2022 and June 2024 were selected. Physician-patient communication characteristics were analyzed. Patients were randomly divided into two groups (41 each) using a random draw method. The control group received conventional physician-patient communication. The observation group received an optimized communication model based on the conventional method. The two groups were compared for treatment efficacy and outcomes, psychological status, coping strategies, sleep quality, and compliance.

resultsSignificant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of time to ambulation and duration of hospital stay (

conclusionPhysician-patient communication presented contradictions between professionalism and laymen's expression and rigid communication methods. Optimizing communication models can improve sleep quality, coping strategies, patient compliance, and treatment outcomes and reduce negative emotions.
