Article in Journal of patient experience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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.

Abstract
This descriptive qualitative study aimed to address a gap in the literature by exploring the experiences of Hospital at Home (HaH) patients and caregivers. HaH programs, which deliver hospital-level care to patients in their homes, are increasingly popular outside the United States. Yet, there is less emphasis on understanding the experiences of patients and caregivers while actively receiving hospital-level care in the home and how their insights can enhance care delivery. A purposeful sample of 12 patients and five caregivers participated in semistructured interviews during the acute care stage and 30 days after their discharge from hospital-level care in the home. Thematic analysis revealed three main themes: (1) patient-centered communication and education, (2) differences in medical care at home, and (3) the impact of technology on the overall experience. These themes provide valuable insights into the factors that patients and caregivers believe positively and negatively influence their experiences within the HaH program. Moreover, the themes highlight aspects of the HaH model that are important to patients/caregivers and those that can be improved.
