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
Objective: To investigate nurses' contribution to tackling chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in primary health care (PHC) settings in Brazil. Methods: Ecological study using secondary data from the Primary Care Health Information System ( Results: In 2023, PHC nurses provided more than 30 million consultations related to NCDs. The highest rates were observed in the Northeast (for hypertension and diabetes) and in the South (for cancer screening). Nationwide, the average productivity was 314.8 consultations per nurse, with the highest number of nurses per 100,000 population seen in the South (58.6) and Northeast (51.0) regions. Conclusion: Nursing plays a strategic role in providing NCD management in PHC settings. Our findings suggest a strong contribution by nurses to coverage and screening of chronic diseases, but with marked regional inequalities. This reiterates the importance of investing in clinical protocols, infrastructure, and continuous training to expand equitable access to quality health care.
