The impact of the 5A nursing model on pain in patients with postherpetic neuralgia: a randomized controlled trial.
Article in Frontiers in pain research (Lausanne, Switzerland), 2026. 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
Background: The complex pathogenesis of postherpetic neuralgia significantly impacts patients' quality of life. Traditional nursing models often fail to fully meet patients' individual needs, whereas the 5A nursing model emphasizes individualized and comprehensive care, providing patients with more effective pain management. This study aims to explore the impact of the 5A nursing model on the pain intensity of patients with postherpetic neuralgia, providing a scientific and effective nursing protocol for clinical practice. Methods: This study employed a prospective methodological design and enrolled patients aged 18 years and older who were admitted to the pain management department and fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for postherpetic neuralgia from July 2025 to October 2025. Participants were required to complete a demographic questionnaire and a numerical pain rating scale. Subsequently, 120 patients were randomly assigned to two groups: the conventional nursing group ( Results: The baseline characteristics, including age, gender, medical history (such as diabetes and hypertension), and pain location, were statistically comparable between the conventional nursing group and the 5A nursing model group, with no significant differences observed ( Conclusion: Nursing interventions based on the 5A model have been demonstrated to enhance pain management for patients suffering from postherpetic neuralgia, thereby improving their overall disease condition. Consequently, clinical nursing staff are encouraged to adopt this model in managing patients' pain, and to intensify intervention measures in order to foster patients' well-being and recovery. Trial registration: This clinical study was registered at Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2500104499) with registration date of 18/6/2025.
