Quality at nursing homes with high proportion of residents with cognitive impairment.
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 2 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
introductionThere is limited data on staffing ratings at nursing homes (NHs) serving residents with dementia, despite staffing impacting quality of care.
methodsResidents' cognitive impairment status, staffing rating, and facility characteristics were obtained for 11,469 NHs, using data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and Long-term Care: Facts on Care in the U.S. The association between the proportion of residents with cognitive impairment and nurse staffing rating was analyzed using multiple logistic regression in a cross-sectional study design.
resultsNHs with a high proportion of residents with cognitive impairment were 41% less likely to have a high staffing rating or high RN staffing rating (95% CI: 0.52-0.67) compared to NHs with a low proportion. DISCUSSION: NHs that serve a higher proportion of residents with cognitive impairment have lower staffing ratings, and this disparity is more pronounced in NHs with more minority residents. Increasing staffing levels is a necessary policy measure to improve care in these facilities.
