Transforming the discharge conversation through support and structure: A scoping review.
Article in International journal of nursing studies advances, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: System level demands and interpersonal barriers can disrupt nurse delivery of high-quality information at discharge, which can contribute to a lack of caregiver preparedness to manage care of the patient and ultimately affect patient health. Objective: To synthesize evidence on effective nurse communication with informal caregivers during hospital discharge of adult patients with cognitive decline or Alzheimer's disease and related dementia. Design: A scoping review of inpatient nurse communication with informal caregivers. Methods: Collected research (published between 2011 and 2023) from three databases (MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL), along with a separate search for gray literature ( Results: Extraction synthesis of strategies resulted in two themes with corresponding sub-themes: Support (Information exchange, Space and time to determine preparedness, and Positive reinforcement of caregiver efforts) and Structure (Setting shared expectations, Informational resources, and Standardization). Conclusions: We offer practical recommendations for both interpersonal and policy level facilitation of nurse delivery of high-quality information at discharge to caregivers of patients with serious illness.
