1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThe aim of this study was to explore and clarify the role of nursing staff in geriatric rehabilitation on supporting patients in goal setting and achieving, through reflecting on rehabilitation interventions.

designA descriptive qualitative study was conducted.

methodsWe conducted four online focus group interviews with 23 members of the nursing staff working in geriatric rehabilitation. They reflected on six interventions, preclassified into three types: setting goals in the admission phase, increasing patient participation in order to personalize the rehabilitation trajectory, and supporting patients in working on short-term goals. Data were analyzed using thematic content analysis.

resultsSetting goals in the admission phase is primarily the task of the multidisciplinary team rather than the nursing staff. Interventions to increase patient participation align with the coordinating role of nursing staff in the rehabilitation team. Working on short-term goals is of great value to patients. CLINICAL RELEVANCE TO THE PRACTICE OF REHABILITATION NURSING: The connection between the patient's personal goals and professional treatment aimed at functional recovery can be enhanced by strengthening the position of nursing staff working in geriatric rehabilitation.

conclusionMembers of nursing staff in geriatric rehabilitation see themselves playing a coordinating role in the multidisciplinary team, supporting the patient in goal work. Interventions aimed at advancing patient participation and providing support for short-term goals reinforce this role.
