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

objectiveTo analyze the scientific production on Advanced Practice Nursing based on dissertations and theses published in Brazil.

methodA bibliometric study, with a descriptive approach based on documents, carried out in the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel Theses and Dissertations Bank, Scientific Electronic Library Online, Virtual Health Library, Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences and institutional repositories, from October to November 2023.

resultsOf the 25 scientific productions identified, 16 are dissertations and nine are theses. Most were published in 2022 (40.0%), in the Southeast region (60.0%), especially at the Faculdade Israelita de Ciências da Saúde Albert Einstein, through a professional master's program in nursing (20.0%). Family health was the most evident area of specialty in the sample (36.0%), and the prevalent level of complexity was Primary Health Care (76.0%).

conclusionThe scenario of scientific productions on the subject in the country has begun to advance in recent years, but is still incipient. The mapping of theses and dissertations on Advanced Practice Nursing points to the emerging need to meet the demands arising from the health sector at an international and national level.
