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

backgroundCommunity-based nursing today faces significant challenges regarding the future supply of healthcare professionals such as registered nurses. This may be due to numerous challenges, such as registered nurses being principally responsible for coordinating care and aligning with the transition to integrated person-centred care, which affects the work environment in community-based nursing. The work environment also affects career advancement prospects, personal motivations, and the desire to make a meaningful contribution to the quality of care. It is, therefore, essential to shed light on registered nurses' experiences of their working situation within community-based nursing to identify factors that can create a better working situation.

aimTo describe registered nurses' experiences of the work situation in Swedish community-based nursing.

methodThe study employed a mixed-methods design. Data were collected through (a) a quantitative sample and (b) a qualitative sample of free-text answers to open-ended questions in the questionnaire. The quantitative material was analysed through descriptive statistics, and the qualitative material was analysed with deductive direct content analysis based on the Fundamental of Care framework's three dimensions.

resultsThe overall experience in community-based nursing was that the registered nurse's work situation within community-based nursing is influenced by factors such as lack of time and understaffing. Lack of time and understaffing affect the possibilities of creating a caring relationship, the integration of care and the context of care.

conclusionRegistered nurses' work situation within community-based nursing is influenced by factors such as lack of time and understaffing. Lack of time and understaffing affect the possibilities of creating a caring relationship with both the person being cared for and their next of kin. In comparison with continuity, good personal knowledge and presence are promoting factors to good caring relationships. The establishment of a care relationship, satisfying basic care and creating organisational conditions take place in collaboration and are the foundations for being able to work person-centred, which also are elements described in the Fundamental of Care framework.
