Influence of neurological severity and degree of dependence of patients after stroke on nursing workload: a retrospective cohort.
Article in Revista da Escola de Enfermagem da U S P, 2025. 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
objectiveTo verify the influence of neurological severity and the degree of dependence of patients after stroke on the nursing workload required during hospitalization in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
methodRetrospective cohort of post-stroke patients admitted between 2019-2022 to a private ICU in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Neurological severity was measured through the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), the level of dependency through the Katz Index, and the nursing workload through the Nursing Activities Score (NAS). Information from the 98 patients was collected from electronic medical records and the mixed effects model was applied in the analyses.
resultsIn a sample of older people (76.1 ± 14.8 years) and consisting predominantly of men (62.4%), it was observed that neurological severity (p < 0.001) and the degree of dependence (p = 0.002) independently predict NAS values, without any relation to the time at which this variable was measured (admission, average day of hospitalization, or discharge from the ICU).
conclusionNeurological severity and degree of dependence influence the nursing workload required by post-stroke patients in the ICU and should be considered when determining the size of the team.
