The Growing Primary Care Nurse Practitioner Workforce: A Solution for the Aging Population Living With Dementia.
Review in The American journal of geriatric psychiatry : official journal of the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Redesigning the healthcare workforce to meet the needs of the growing population of persons living with dementia (PLWD), most of whom reside in the community and receive care from primary care providers, is a national priority. Yet, the shortage of adequately trained providers is raising concerns that the primary care system is not equipped to care for PLWD. The growing nurse practitioner (NP) workforce could bridge this gap. In this review, the authors synthesized the existing evidence from fourteen studies on the utilization of NPs to care for PLWD in primary care. Although the authors found that most NPs were engaged in co-management roles, emerging evidence suggests that NPs also serve as primary care providers for PLWD. Findings describe the impact of NP care on the health system, PLWD, and caregiver outcomes. The authors conclude that the optimal utilization of NPs can increase the capacity of delivering dementia-capable primary care.
