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

With a median caseload of 750-1,000 clients, school nurses face setting-specific challenges involving multiple, competing demands. This necessitates effective prioritization to prevent missed opportunities to provide appropriate care. This integrative review synthesizes the current state of the literature related to prioritization among school nurses in the United States. Three themes were identified relating to prioritization among school nursing: knowledge, attitudes and values; self-efficacy and intention to act; and the nursing process. The prioritization behavior of school nurses can be facilitated by organizational and community collaboration and strong evidence-based practice recommendations. High workloads and inadequate resources among school nurses are the most consistently cited barriers to effective prioritization. Additional research on how to improve effective prioritization among school nurses for the improvement of population health outcomes is needed.
