Comparison of Japan nurse practitioner-led care and physician trainee-led care on patients' length of stay in a secondary emergency department: A retrospective study.

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
aimWe compared Japan nurse practitioner-led care and physician trainee-led care in terms of patients' length of stay in a secondary emergency department in Japan.
methodsThis was a retrospective observational study, utilizing medical records. Participants (n = 1419; mean age = 63.9 ± 23.4 years; 52.3% men) were patients transferred to the emergency department by ambulance between April 2016 and March 2018 in western Tokyo. Multiple linear regression analyses were performed, with length of stay as the dependent variable and factors related to the length of stay, including medical care leaders, as the independent variable.
resultsApproximately half of the patients (n = 763; 53.8%) received Japan nurse practitioner-led care. Patients' length of stay was significantly shorter, by 6 min, in the Japan nurse practitioner-led care group, compared with the physician trainee-led care group (unstandardized coefficient: -6.81; 95% confidence interval: -13.35 to -0.26; p < 0.05).
conclusionPatients' shorter length of stay in the Japan nurse practitioner group, compared with the physician trainee group, suggests that Japan nurse practitioners are not inferior to physician trainees in terms of the time spent to manage patients.
