District nurses' experiences of giving initial health care assessment to young adults applying for mental illness in primary care: a qualitative interview study.
Article in Primary health care research & development, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundMental illness among young adults is increasing both nationally and internationally. Primary care's mission is to be the hub of health care and to offer high-quality care regardless of age, patient group, or disease. The role of district nurse varies in terms of definition and scope of practice but has a central role through their health promotion mission and by being the first person these young adults meet in primary care.
aimThe aim of this study was to explore district nurses' experiences of meeting young adults with mental illness in primary care.
methodThe study was conducted with a qualitative inductive approach. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with nine district nurses in primary care in Sweden. The data were analysed through qualitative content analysis.

conclusionTo meet the increasing number of young adults with mental health problems seeking care, district nurses in primary care need continuous training. By working in a person-centred and health-promoting manner, the district nurse's competence can be utilized. The district nurses perceive they could manage the important role being a resource and take a greater responsibility to guide young adults on the right path.
