A conceptual framework to integrate parents' cultural determinants in the care of preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Review in Journal of health, population, and nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimTo present a conceptual framework for healthcare professionals and stakeholders to ensure culturally sensitive preterm infant care in the neonatal intensive care unit.
backgroundIntegrating cultural determinants in preterm infant care in the neonatal intensive care unit is crucial to help yield positive health outcomes. Culturally sensitive care addresses the unique needs of families from diverse backgrounds; however, its implementation is lacking.
methodsEmploying data from descriptive qualitative study and integrative literature review, five-step developmental process was used to construct a conceptual framework: (1) Gathering evidence through an integrative literature review; (2) Conducting a qualitative study; (3) Merging findings from an integrative literature review and a qualitative study; (4) Conceptual framework development; and (5) Visualisation of the developed conceptual framework.
resultsThe study merged the integrated literature review and qualitative findings to assemble a comprehensive list of cultural determinants, categorising them into four groups: parental, family, environmental, and healthcare service factors. These groups served as building blocks for the conceptual framework development using six key components of the Practical Orientation Theory: context, agents, dynamics, procedures, recipients, and terminus.
conclusionThe developed conceptual framework will guide healthcare professionals and stakeholders in integrating cultural determinants of parents in preterm infant care. Based on the findings, recommendations were made regarding practical strategies for implementing culturally sensitive care. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Applying a conceptual framework in the neonatal intensive care unit can inform culturally sensitive care for preterm infants and their families. This framework has the potential to yield several benefits, including the improvement of therapeutic relationships between healthcare professionals and families. Additionally, culturally sensitive care may foster increased parental involvement, facilitating family-led interventions in healthcare practices. Ultimately, these positive shifts in care dynamics have the potential to contribute to improved health outcomes for preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit.
