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
Little is known about the quality of nursing homes in managed care organizations (MCOs) networks. This study (1) described decision-making criteria for selecting nursing home networks and (2) compared selected quality indicators of network and nonnetwork nursing homes. The sample was 17 MCOs participating in a California demonstration that provided integrated long-term services and supports to dually eligible enrollees in 2017. The findings showed that the MCOs established a broad network of nursing homes, with only limited attention to using quality criteria. Network nursing homes (602) scored significantly lower on 6 selected quality measures than nonnetwork (117) nursing homes. Low registered nurse and total nurse staffing were strong predictors of network nursing homes controlling for facility characteristics. Managed care organizations should consider greater transparency about the quality of their nursing homes and use specific quality criteria to improve the quality of their networks.
