Nurses' Descriptions of Interdisciplinary Interactions in Stroke and Geriatric Rehabilitation Units: A Case Example of the Registered Practical Nurse.
Article in Journal of advanced nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimTo analyse how nurses describe their interactions with other interdisciplinary team members within stroke and geriatric rehabilitation.
designA secondary analysis of cross-sectional ethnographic interview data was conducted using Elo and Kyngäs' (2008) deductive content analysis.
methodsBetween April 12 and July 25, 2022, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 31 registered practical nurses recruited through convenience sampling from three tertiary hospital sites in Southwestern Ontario. Interview transcripts were reviewed to identify described interactions between nurses and interdisciplinary team members and were coded for: who were the interdisciplinary team member(s) involved; what content was addressed; and where, when, and why the interaction occurred.
resultsCategories representing how nurses describe their interactions with interdisciplinary team members were as follows: (1) arising from the unique roles owned by either the nurse or interdisciplinary team member(s); (2) requiring open communication to achieve patient goals and improve patient care; (3) occurring within what is perceived to be either the therapists' or nurses' physical space; and (4) contributing to supportive team environments that are mutually beneficial.
conclusionsWhile nurses view other interdisciplinary team members as 'owning' certain roles and physical spaces within rehabilitation, they also recognised their 'owned' spaces and roles. Unique contributions of all team members were valued as necessary to provide holistic, person-centred patient care and positive team-based support. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE: Nurses' descriptions of their interactions with interdisciplinary team members demonstrated their essential contributions to team-based patient care and acknowledged nurse contributions to the rehabilitation process for patients. IMPACT: Findings elucidate the nature of interprofessional interactions and 'ownership' within the rehabilitation process. Results are beneficial for policymakers, educators, and healthcare organisations aiming to optimise the nursing role within rehabilitation spaces. REPORTING
