1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundIn aging populations, the demand for care, including care delivery in long-term care (LTC) facilities, is increasing. This situation highlights the need to optimize care processes through continuous scientific evaluation. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential for use in nursing research, but it experiences a lack of standardization and structuring of nursing data. Although solutions such as standardized nursing terminologies exist, their use in practice has thus far not been widespread and is often associated with high documentation costs.

objectiveThis paper presents the conceptual and technical development of a nursing minimum dataset that focuses on a specific "fall prevention" use case. The aim of this work was to improve data standardization and usability for research and AI-based analysis in LTC settings.

methodsA representation of the "fall prevention" use case was developed using literature analyses, co-design workshops, and a quantitative survey (n=158). Technical indexing was conducted by translating the results into the technical terminology of the Health Level Seven International Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources standard.

resultsThe "fall prevention" use case was developed as part of a German nursing minimum dataset for long-term residential care with 8 basic modules (patient or client demographics) and 11 extension modules (nursing care elements). The module of the "fall prevention" use case includes fall risk factors, interventions, and outcomes. The literature analysis included 4 international fall guidelines and 17 practice and transfer documents established in German LTC. In total, 12 experts from the fields of management, quality management, technical application support, nursing service management, department management, and members of the PFLIP (Pflege-Kerndatensatz und Intersektorales Pflegedaten-Repository [Nursing Minimum Data Set and Intersectoral Nursing Data Repository]) research project participated in the workshops. A total of 158 people participated in the quantitative survey, the majority of whom were female (117/158, 74%), with 63% (100/158) working directly in nursing care and an average of 24.9 years of professional experience, mainly in LTC (63/158, 40%), outpatient care (37/158, 23%), and hospitals (14/158, 9%). The relevant content, in the sense of a minimum set of items, was identified and prioritized in collaboration with nursing experts and translated into a Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources-based implementation guide.

conclusionsThis approach addresses the lack of structured nursing data for AI and research and can serve as an example for interoperable, cross-sector solutions in global LTC.
