Patients' Experiences of Nurse Case-Managed Osteoporosis Care: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Journal of patient experience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundOsteoporosis is a chronic condition that is often left untreated. Nurse case-managers can double rates of appropriate treatment in those with new fractures. However, little is known about patients' experiences of a nurse case-managed approach to osteoporosis care.
objectiveOur aim was to describe patients' experiences of nurse case-managed osteoporosis care.
methodsA qualitative, descriptive design was used. We recruited patients enrolled in a randomized controlled trial of a nurse case-management approach. Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted which were transcribed and analyzed using content analysis. Data were managed with ATLAS.ti version 7.
resultsWe interviewed 15 female case-managed patients. Most (60%) were 60-years or older, 27% had previous fracture, 80% had low bone mineral density tests, and 87% had good osteoporosis knowledge. Three major themes emerged from our analysis: acceptable information to inform decision-making; reasonable and accessible care provided; and appropriate information to meet patient needs.
conclusionsThis study provides important insights about older female patients' experiences with nurse case-managed care for osteoporosis. Our findings suggest that this model to osteoporosis clinical care should be sustained and expanded in this setting, if proven effective. In addition, our findings point to the importance of applying patient-centered care across all dimensions of quality to better enhance the patients' experience of their health care.
