Infection prevention and control in nursing homes during COVID-19: An environmental scan.
Article in Geriatric nursing (New York, N.Y.). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
To examine processes and programmatic elements of infection prevention and control (IPC) efforts and identify themes and promising approaches in nursing homes (NHs), an environmental scan was conducted. Data sources included a literature search, relevant listservs and websites, and expert consensus based on a virtual summit of leaders in IPC in long-term care settings. Three thematic areas emerged which have the potential to improve overall IPC practices in the long-term care setting: staffing and resource availability, training and knowledge of IPC practices, and organizational culture. If improved IPC practices and reduced cross-transmission of infections in NHs are to be sustained, both short-term and long-term changes in these areas are essential to fully engage staff, build trust, and enhance a 'just' organizational culture.
