Content analysis of the Global Alliance for Nursing and Midwifery discussion forum: an online community of practice.
Article in Revista latino-americana de enfermagem, 2021. 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
objectiveto examine the usage and content of the Global Alliance for Nursing and Midwifery (GANM) discussion forum in relation to nursing and midwifery education and practice.
methoda qualitative conventional content analysis was performed. Subject lines from 1689 discussion board threads were extracted and used as the unit of analysis. A-priori codes were developed based on topical relevance (e.g. maternal health) and typical discussion board usage (e.g. announcing educational opportunities). Emerging codes were further identified while coding the data (e.g. infectious diseases).
resultsthe GANM discussion forum was used most frequently for information exchange (43.8%), such as dissemination of new information on evidence-based practice, and to announce educational opportunities (24.8%). The most frequently discussed topics were nursing (14.2%; e.g. the role of nurses in primary care, nursing education, etc.) and maternal health (13.8%; e.g. postpartum care, maternal mortality, etc.). Infectious diseases were discussed in 9% of threads, 40% of which concerned the current coronavirus pandemic.
conclusionfindings reinforce the utility of the GANM as a platform for professional development and continuing education. As a platform for disseminating empirical research, the GANM can be leveraged to have an influence on real-world, evidence-based practice.
