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 purpose of this review is to identify how health professionals perceive participation in implementation of new technology in healthcare organizations. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: A qualitative systematic review based on the PRISMA diagram, was conducted using qualitative synthesis. NVivo software was used for thematic analysis. The searches were performed in PubMed, CINAHL and Scopus.

findingsA total of 15 articles were included in the review, four themes describing how participation of health professionals in digital transformation affects the outcomes were identified, and three themes describing the factors that are necessary to promote participation. The underlying latent theme of an unmet desire to participate in the digital transformation was also identified in the analysis. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The digital transformation of healthcare is complex and faces many obstacles if not managed correctly. Professional participation in the implementation seems to be essential for success. Focus on increased resources and planning during early stages, as well as teamwork and ethical reflection is important addressing the challenges that professionals face in digital transformation of healthcare.
