Long-Term Care Providers' Perspectives on Health Information Exchange During Patient Transitions Into Long-Term Care: A Multiple Case Study.
Article in Healthcare management forum, 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
This multiple case study explored how Long-Term Care (LTC) teams in Ontario, Canada, manage informational continuity when older adults transition from community-based care to LTC. Five LTC homes, varying in size and rurality, participated, with 20 professionals interviewed across various roles, including nursing, medicine, rehabilitation, and administration. LTC providers emphasized the importance of comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date biopsychosocial information to support effective care. However, information transferred from community and hospital sources was often incomplete or outdated. To address gaps, LTC staff sought additional details from electronic health records, families, care coordinators, and hospitalists. Their ability to obtain missing information was influenced by organizational capacity, physician's practice location, power dynamics between providers, availability of family caregiver support, and access to electronic health records. A stronger primary/hospital-LTC collaboration, incentives for informational continuity, and a specific staff managing transition information and activities could optimize the LTC transition information exchange process.
