Strategies to support pressure injury best practices by the inter-professional team: A systematic review.
Synthesis in International wound journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Optimal pressure injury (ulcer) management by the inter-professional team requires appropriate health care system and organisational resources, infrastructure, and policies. A systematic review was conducted on pressure injury care-related education and health care system-/organisation-level strategies. A search for relevant articles published between January 2006 and October 2014 was applied to 8 databases. Ultimately, 22 articles pertaining to education and training and 12 articles pertaining to health care system and organisation supports for pressure injury care were included in the systematic review. A lack of pressure injury assessment and management knowledge by health care professionals was an overriding theme in the education literature. Some of the methods preferred for pressure injury education among nurses and physicians included information technology (eg, e-learning) with technology support and the use of high-quality wound pictures. Although the evidence is scarce, the literature did highlight specific system- and organisation-level barriers and enablers that influence practice change, including inter-professional communication and human resource investments. In conclusion, (1) the current evidence on the education and system-level enablers, barriers, and strategies to optimise pressure injury best practices requires further investigation, and (2) multi-faceted, up-stream, evidence-based approaches for pressure injury care are essential to improve health care and patient-related outcomes.
