Training nurses in auriculotherapy/auricular acupuncture: possible paths for Portugal.
Article in Revista da Escola de Enfermagem da U S P, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo report on the experience of developing training in auriculotherapy/auricular acupuncture for nurses in Portugal.
methodDescriptive experience report, using the methodological framework proposed by Donabedian and informed and dialogued descriptive analysis. The training carried out is part of a thesis.
resultsThe experience took place from January to February 2025, during academic mobility at the Coimbra School of Nursing. This is a collective training course, developed with 19 nurses working in Portugal and with no previous training in auriculotherapy, who were intentionally invited. The course was adapted following the proposed guidelines for training nurses in auriculotherapy/auricular acupuncture, with educational objectives based on Bloom's Taxonomy. The course consisted of 75 hours of online theory. The practical workload was tested, varying from five to 20 hours.
conclusionThe experience is unprecedented and innovative and may support the regulation of training in auriculotherapy/auricular acupuncture as an intervention by nurses, based on the Brazilian model.
