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
Purpose: Guided by the Integrated Theory of Health Behavior Change (ITHBC), this study aimed to explore self-management barriers and mobile health (mHealth) service requirements among patients with spinal cord injury-related neurogenic bladder from patient and nurse perspectives, providing evidence for developing a nurse-patient collaborative home-based self-management platform. The ITHBC highlights the synergistic interaction among knowledge and beliefs, self-regulation, and social support, fitting this study's goal of identifying multidimensional self-management barriers. Dual-perspective exploration also compensates for limitations of single-perspective studies and more comprehensively identifies clinical barriers and practical requirements. Patients and Methods: This study adopted a descriptive qualitative design. Participants including 15 patients with neurogenic bladder following spinal cord injury and 11 nurses were recruited via purposive sampling from the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine and the Department of Spinal Surgery at a tertiary hospital in Inner Mongolia from August to December 2025. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, with telephone interviews for patients and face-to-face interviews for nurses. The ITHBC served as the conceptual framework; interview data were analyzed using Colaizzi's seven-step method. Results: Four themes were extracted: (1) knowledge and belief barriers; (2) self-regulation barriers; (3) social support barriers; (4) mHealth service requirements. Conclusion: Patients with neurogenic bladder following spinal cord injury suffer multidimensional self-management barriers, and conventional follow-up fails to meet their long-term home rehabilitation requirements. Guided by ITHBC, a mobile home-based self-management platform developed by integrating the requirements elicited from patients and nurses, may help address these self-management challenges and strengthen the social support chain, offering a new avenue for optimizing neurogenic bladder care. Nevertheless, implementation challenges including increased workload and legal liability warrant careful consideration. It should be noted that this is only a qualitative exploratory study. The conceptual mobile health platform proposed in this paper requires iterative development and effectiveness verification in future research before clinical implementation.
