Primary Healthcare Nurses' Views on Digital Healthcare Communication and Continuity of Care: A Deductive and Inductive Content Analysis.
Article in Nursing reports (Pavia, Italy), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Primary healthcare in the Western world faces significant functional challenges, resulting in the implementation of digital communication tools. Nurses are key professionals in primary care and focusing on the impact of digital communication and continuity of care in primary care organisations is important. This qualitative descriptive study explores digital communication and continuity of care from primary healthcare nurses' perspective. Data from individual semi-structured interviews with 12 nurses were collected; deductive and inductive content analyses were performed. Three descriptive categories emerged from the deductive (digital communication as interpersonal, information, and management continuities) and inductive ('digital care does not suit everyone', 'new technology is contextually intertwined with daily work', and 'patient-positive aspects of digital information') phases. Additionally, a structural risk of obscuration of patients' needs by the contextual conditions emerged. To ensure digital communication-aligned continuity of care, compatible information technology systems should be developed. Allowing nurses to provide high-quality care based on their own values would enhance person-centred patient care.
