Educational effect of geriatric specialist engagement in temporary care facilities.
Article in European geriatric medicine, 2026. 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
purposeTo deliver an effective training intervention to staff in temporary elder care institutions in municipalities. SETTINGS: A geriatric department at a university hospital in collaboration with 6 surrounding municipalities.
interventionThe training intervention was planned using self-determination theory as framework. Important elements were relation building, giving nursing staff a choice concerning themes of teaching sessions (supports autonomy) and selection of cases, supporting competence development through case-based discussions. Study design and statistical approach: before and after the intervention, an electronic questionnaire was mailed to staff at care institutions in the municipalities. The questionnaire contained questions drawn from the Basic Psychological Need Satisfaction and Frustration Scale (BPNSFS). Differences concerning competences between before and after the intervention were assessed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. KEY
findings55 persons answered the BPNSFS before and after the intervention. For all items in BPNSFS, the results after compared to before improved. However, the improvement was significant only for the sum of all items with a mean difference of 0.13, p = 0.05, and for one single item (I feel capable at what I do at work), with a mean difference of 0.15, p = 0.02.
conclusionsWe have shown that self-determination theory has the potential to provide a theoretical framework for planning training interventions among staff in temporary elder care institutions. It is possible to measure the effect using an instrument developed within the framework of self-determination theory (BPNSFS).
