Intervention description of pharmacist-facilitated medication reviews in Nordic primary care settings: a scoping review.
Article in Scandinavian journal of primary health care, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundMulticomponent interventions are increasingly utilized to tackle the complexity of aging and co-morbid patients. However, descriptions of interventions are generally poor, making it difficult for healthcare providers to implement successful programs.
objectivesThis study aimed to explore the completeness of intervention description of pharmacist-facilitated medication reviews (MRs) in Nordic primary care settings.
methodsWe performed a scoping review of studies reporting on pharmacist-facilitated MRs in Nordic primary care settings. Medline, Embase, CINAHL and Web of Science were searched on 24 January 2024. We used Arksey and O'Mally's framework for scoping studies and applied an adapted version of the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist to evaluate intervention reporting. The Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe (PCNE) classification of MR levels was used to identify the components of different MRs.
resultsSixteen studies were included in this scoping review. The studies were conducted in Sweden (
conclusionThe studies included in this scoping review do not provide sufficient MR information for intervention replication. We recommend that pharmacy trials use reporting checklists to increase the replicability and transferability of effective interventions.
