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

Effective information transfer from hospitals to psychiatric home-visit nurses is essential for ensuring continuity of care. However, previous studies have suggested that discharge information is often inadequate, particularly regarding the psychosocial aspects of patient care. This study assessed home-visit nurses' subjective evaluations of the adequacy of patient information provided by hospitals in psychiatric home-visit nursing. A nationwide cross-sectional survey was distributed to 2,000 home-visit nursing agencies across Japan, yielding 482 responses. After excluding one invalid response, 481 responses were analyzed (response rate: 8.0%). The sufficiency of patient information was calculated as the logarithm of the ratio between the information received and the information requested by nurses. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests confirmed that all gaps between the information received and requested were significant (
