Improving Healthcare through the Skills Mix of the Workforce.
Article in Zdravstveno varstvo, 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
The latest definition of skill mix refers to changes in tasks, skills, competencies or roles within and between healthcare professionals and healthcare workers in three areas: Task shifting, role expansion and multi-professional collaboration. There is evidence of the effectiveness of many changes in the skill mix - particularly in the areas of health promotion and disease prevention, chronic disease management and care of vulnerable populations. The implementation of skill-mix approaches begins with interprofessional education, which emphasises collaborative practice aimed at fostering working relationships between two or more health professions. The evidence for the effectiveness of many skill mix changes should not be understood as a resource-neutral intervention. Changes in skill mix have implications for the structure of labour shortages, as workload shifts or increases. In addition, education and training interventions require time and resources and therefore considerable joint effort from the stakeholders involved.
