Exploring the implemented guidelines for dyslipidemia treatment and care among nurses and physicians: A qualitative study in Jordan.
Article in PloS one, 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
backgroundDyslipidemia is a major risk factor for ischemic heart disease worldwide. The most recent guidelines from the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) and the European Society of Cardiology/European Atherosclerosis Society (ESC/EAS) aim to control cholesterol levels and reduce cardiovascular risk. In Jordan, where no national guidelines exist, international guidelines are commonly adopted. However, limited research has examined their implementation in clinical practice. This study aimed to explore the implementation of updated ACC/AHA and ESC/EAS guidelines for the treatment and care of dyslipidemia among nurses and physicians in Jordan.
methodsSemi-structured focus group interviews with open-ended questions were conducted to gain a deeper understanding of current practices and guideline implementation among nurses and physicians.
resultsThe focus group discussions revealed that healthcare professionals attempt to follow specific guidelines and achieve optimal treatment goals. However, several barriers, including a heavy workload, limited resources, and a lack of institutional support, hinder effective implementation. Participants also provided several suggestions to improve guideline implementation and expressed the need for national, context-specific dyslipidemia management guidelines in Jordan.
conclusionsThe study found limited implementation of dyslipidemia management guidelines among Jordanian nurses and physicians in clinical practice. Findings highlight the need for national guidance and system-level support to facilitate better implementation.
