Infection control nurse: A scoping review.
Review in Journal of education and health promotion, 2024. 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
Infection control is a crucial aspect of healthcare delivery aimed at curtailing the spread of infections within healthcare settings. The role of infection control nurses (ICNs) is reported to have a significant contribution in limiting healthcare-associated infections. Scholarly investigations have explored various domains of ICNs. However, a lack of comprehensive coverage of existing studies in the area is observed. Therefore, the current review attempts to determine the scope of the literature published on ICNs. A search was conducted on PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, Embase, and Web of Science from January 2000 to December 2023 to retrieve research outputs on ICNs. The identified data underwent two screening stages to extract relevant articles based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The key outcomes were the factors that influenced the performance of ICNs and ICN programs. Out of 1869 articles, 25 were selected for the final review. The study summary identifies themes such as the roles and factors influencing ICNs and evaluating ICN programs. The review highlights a lack of high-quality evidence on ICN programs. Therefore, future studies should focus on implementing and evaluating these programs. Mapping and designing the structure, job responsibilities, and the role of ICNs demand attention from the research community.
