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

purposeThis study aimed to identify core shared competencies required for effective physician-nurse collaboration in primary care.

methodsA three-round Delphi survey was conducted from November 2024 to February 2025 with 30 experts (12 physicians, 18 nurses), including family medicine professors, primary care physicians, nursing professors, and practicing nurses. Experts evaluated the importance and roles of interprofessional team approaches using online questionnaires. Quantitative analyses included mean, standard deviation, and content validity ratio (CVR).

resultsThe first round confirmed the necessity of interprofessional teamwork in cases such as chronic disease management, rehabilitation, elderly care, and mental health. Essential team members were physicians, nurses, and social workers, with additional professionals engaged as needed. Through iterative consensus, six shared competencies were derived: (1) patient-centered integrated care, (2) treatment plan development and implementation, (3) communication and collaboration, (4) professional development as a team member, (5) Evaluation and feedback on service outcomes, and (6) disease prevention and health promotion. All items met consensus criteria (CVR ≥0.34).

conclusionThese findings clarify physician-nurse shared competencies in primary care and provide a foundation for developing competency-based interprofessional curricula and training programs to enhance collaborative care quality and patient outcomes.
