Nursing Home Profit Status and Pain Among Residents Living With Dementia.
Article in Pain management nursing : official journal of the American Society of Pain Management Nurses, 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
backgroundNursing home (NH) residents living with dementia experience pain that is often sub-optimally managed. There is a known relationship between NH organizational factors, such as profit status, and quality of care. However, little attention has been paid to understanding the relationship between NH ownership profit status and pain among residents living with dementia.
aimTo examine the relationship between NH ownership profit status and pain among residents living with dementia.
designThis cross-sectional secondary data analysis of the Evidence Integration Triangle for Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia (EIT-4-BPSD) study included 553 NH residents living with dementia residing in 55 NHs in the United States.
methodsDescriptive statistics were used to summarize the sample, and generalized linear mixed models were used to examine the relationship between NH ownership profit status and pain, controlling for resident comorbidities, cognition, and NH quality rating.
resultsNH communities were mostly owned by for-profit entities (61.8%, n = 34), and less than one quarter of residents had pain (23.3%, n = 125). NH ownership profit status was not significantly associated with pain (OR = -0.88, 95% CI = -1.86 to 0.10; p = .08).
conclusionsGiven the complexity of assessing and treating pain in this population, there is a need for increased attention to improving pain management. Future studies should examine other NH organizational factors, such as for-profit entity subtype and its relationship with pain among residents living with dementia.
