Regulation of the Nurse Practitioner Workforce: Implications for Care Across Settings.
Article in Journal of nursing regulation, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionThe current shortage of physicians in the United States has potential to dramatically limit access to healthcare. Nurse practitioners (NPs) can provide a cost-effective solution to the shortage, yet few states allow NPs to practice independently. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to provide an up-to-date description of the NP workforce and to identify the professional and organizational factors associated with NP care quality.
methodsCross-sectional survey data from a sample of NPs actively employed in four states with reduced or restricted practice (California, Florida, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania) was used. NPs were categorized into acute and primary care. Regression models were fit to estimate the odds of three measures of care quality: overall quality of patient care, NP confidence that patients and their caregivers can manage their care at home, and whether NPs would recommend their practice facility to family and friends.
resultsReceiving support from administrative staff and physicians was associated with an increase in the three measures of quality. The greatest effects were seen in primary care settings.
conclusionIt is imperative that legislators and healthcare administrators implement policies that provide NPs with an environment that supports clinical practice and enhances care delivery.
