Costs of Infection Prevention Practices in Long-Term Care Settings: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Nursing economic$. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Long-term care demographic and industry trends challenge provision of effective care and infection prevention. A systematic review was conducted to identify and evaluate cost estimates reported in the scientific literature of structure and processes intended to prevent infection among residents and staff of long-term care facilities (LTCFs). The small volume of publications regarding cost of infection prevention in LTCFs does not lead to recommendations for specific infection prevention practices. Cost-effectiveness research is needed to inform nurse executives' decisions on how best to prevent infections. Nurse executives should consider costs as well as health outcomes when generating new policy regarding procedures or products related to infection prevention. Administrators should cautiously evaluate the recommendations of published studies containing a cost estimation based on the quality of the estimate in addition to assessing applicability of the results to their own facility and resident population.
