Healthcare for adults with long-term neurological conditions: European Academy of Neurology Members Survey.
Article in BMJ supportive & palliative care, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe number of people living with long-term neurological conditions (PwLTNC) in Europe is on the rise and they experience a variety of complex symptoms, often requiring hospital admissions. This survey explored challenges healthcare professionals are encountering when providing care for PwLTNC.
methodsA web-based survey was developed by the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) Scientific Panel on Palliative Care and disseminated by the EAN Scientific Department through the official mailing list, website and newsletter in the period 3 January 2024 to 27 February 2024. The United Nations' geoscheme for Europe was applied and differences between the North/West vs South/East/Greater European regions analysed.
resultsA total of 153 EAN members (50% women, mean age 48 years) were participated. They expressed their dissatisfaction with the availability of long-term healthcare, including palliative care (60%), psychosocial (67%) and spiritual support (60%) offered to PwLTNC, their families and carers, the resources to provide healthcare for PwLTNC in medical emergencies and knowledge of acute medical staff about PwLTNC (45%). Dissatisfaction with the availability of resources needed to provide healthcare for PwLTNC, the psychosocial support offered to PwLTNC and the extent of advance care planning implementation was more frequently reported in South/East/Greater Europe compared with North/West Europe.
conclusionThis survey of the EAN members revealed dissatisfaction with long-term healthcare, including palliative care, offered to PwLTNC, their families and carers and pointed out healthcare disparities between the two European macroregions, with more critical figures in South/East/Greater Europe.
