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

objectiveThis research evaluated the effectiveness of risk management strategies in enhancing nursing management quality and improving patient satisfaction in the operating room setting.

methodsA quasi-experimental design was adopted to compare outcomes between two patient groups in the operating room. The observation group (n = 49) received nursing care guided by structured risk management protocols, while the routine group (n = 42) received conventional nursing management. Outcome indicators included the incidence of nursing-related risk events, comprehensive nursing quality scores (covering basic care, aseptic practices, documentation quality, item management, and safety protocols), nursing staff's risk management cognition (awareness, attitude, and behavior), and patient satisfaction levels.

resultsCompared to the routine group, the observation group demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of nursing risk events (P < 0.05). Scores for nursing quality across all domains-including aseptic practices and safety management-were markedly higher in the risk-managed group (P < 0.05). Nursing staff in the observation group also exhibited enhanced risk cognition, more proactive attitudes, and stronger risk management behaviors (P < 0.05). Furthermore, patient satisfaction scores were significantly improved in the risk-managed group.

conclusionImplementation of structured risk management strategies in the operating room leads to measurable improvements in nursing quality, enhances staff risk awareness and practices, and significantly boosts patient satisfaction. These findings support broader integration of risk-based nursing protocols into perioperative care systems to ensure safer and higher-quality patient outcomes.
