Acute service and disability service providers experiences of joint working to improve health care experiences of people with an intellectual disability compared to non-joint working: A mixed-method systematic review.

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
Persons with intellectual disabilities require frequent access to acute services. Many also access disability services within the community. Reports and enquiries have highlighted the sub-optimal healthcare provided to this group when accessing healthcare in acute services. Joint working between acute and disability services has been identified as a measure to improve healthcare for this group. A mixed method systematic review was undertaken to explore current evidence of joint working between both service providers. Twelve publications were included, and the data were analysed using thematic analysis. Confusion around responsibility and limited training in acute services prevented joint working from occurring. Information-sharing is pivotal in promoting joint-working, but measures which facilitated it were not always used. Albeit acute services demonstrated a strong commitment to deliver quality care to those with intellectual disabilities. Much of the available research captures the experiences of staff in acute services. There is a paucity of research available exploring experiences of disability service providers.
