A Review of Disparities in Outcomes of Hospitalized Patients with Limited English Proficiency: The Importance of Nursing Resources.
Review in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Language barriers significantly affect communication between patients and health care staff and are associated with receipt of lower-quality care. Registered nurses are well positioned members of the health care team to reduce and eliminate disparities for patients with limited English proficiency (LEP). Current evidence recommends nurses use interpreters or translation devices to overcome language barriers; however, these recommendations fail to recognize that structural system-level factors, such as unsupportive work environments and poor nurse-to-patient staffing ratios, reduce nurses' ability to implement these recommendations. The Quality Health Outcomes Model (QHOM) is a useful framework for understanding relationships between hospital systems, the delivery of care interventions, and patient outcomes. The goal of this manuscript is to use the QHOM and existing empirical evidence to present a new perspective on the long-standing clinical challenge of reducing language-related health outcome disparities by considering the context in which nurses deliver patient care.
