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

As the aged care sector undergoes digital transformation, greater attention is needed to development of digital health capability in its workforce. There are many gaps in our understanding of the current and future impacts of technology on those who perform paid and unpaid aged care work. Research is needed to understand how to make optimal use of both digital resources and human resources for better aged care. In this Viewpoint, we reflect on a workshop held during an international conference that identified shared concepts and concerns to shape further research into workforce capability. Digital technologies and digital data can increase quality of care in a system that operates through partnerships among service providers, service users, and community members. To realize this potential, digital health learning and development are needed in the aged care workforce. As digital dimensions of aged care services expand, the sector needs clearer direction to implement approaches to workforce learning and development. These must be appropriate to support the safe and ethical performance of care work and to increase the satisfaction of those who care and those for whom they care.
