The Documentation Used by the Nurses During the Transition From the Hospital to the Community Setting: A Scoping Review.
Article in Nursing open, 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
aimThis study aimed to identify the content of documentation used between hospital and community care and describe the communication mechanisms that allow the continuity of care.
designWe conducted a scoping review following the JBI recommendations.
methodsThe sources of the information used were obtained from the MEDLINE and CINAHL databases (via EBSCO), Web of Science, SCOPUS, Joanna Briggs Institute and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Additionally, grey literature was included. The databases searched from 2018 to 2023 for articles written in English and Portuguese. Two researchers independently screened articles based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, and a third researcher adjudicated disagreements.
resultsWe retrieved 3217 articles, of which 5 were included. Six themes were summarised from these articles: Communication and information between clinical practice environments; Discharge letter content; The use of technologies in healthcare communication; Client empowerment in information communication; Factors hindering the safe transition of information between hospital and community; and Benefits of secure information transition between hospital and community. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE: The results allow systematisation of the information that should accompany the person at the time of discharge to ensure the continuity of transitional care, including the patient/family's own perception of their difficulties and needs.
