Social and healthcare professionals' work to establish coherent rehabilitation pathways for people with inflammatory arthritis: a qualitative study.
Article in BMC rheumatology, 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
backgroundProfessionals in health and social care are challenged by the complexity and fragmentation across primary and secondary levels of care. To study coherent rehabilitation pathways, we focused on people with inflammatory arthritis admitted to a specialised rehabilitation stay as these pathways will involve a myriad of different professionals from primary and secondary levels of care. This study aimed to explore how health and social care professionals establish coherent rehabilitation pathways for people with inflammatory arthritis across primary and secondary levels of care and how organisational factors influence on workflow.
methodsTwenty-four situations between professionals and clients were observed during an inpatient rehabilitation stay. In addition, semi-structured interviews with 26 health and social care professionals from primary and secondary levels of care were conducted. An abductive approach guided the analysis and applied person-centred and integrated care concepts.
resultsThree themes were derived from the analysis: (1) Person-centred interactions with clients, highlighting that professionals wanted to respond to clients' preferences; (2) inter-dependent interactions between professionals, reflecting dependence on collaboration across primary and secondary level of care; and (3) economic and cultural frameworks influence professionals' work.
conclusionProfessionals strive to take a person-centred approach and must coordinate and communicate with other professionals to create coherent rehabilitation pathways. However, economic and cultural frameworks influenced by the logic of public management and medical professionalism may hinder these intentions. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
