Nurse-led interventions in enhancing outcomes for patients with tuberculosis: a scoping review.
Article in Journal of research in nursing : JRN, 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
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health challenge. In this context, nurses play a vital role in patient-centred interventions that report improvements in TB care outcomes. Aims: This scoping review aimed to identify and describe the main components of nurse-led interventions for TB patients. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across Embase, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science with no restrictions applied. Studies were eligible if they reported nurse-led interventions for TB patients in either clinical or community settings. Two reviewers independently screened the records and extracted relevant data, and the findings were systematically charted and summarised descriptively. Results: Of 6014 records screened, 11 studies involving 1044 participants were included. Most interventions (73%) were delivered in primary care, emphasising education and counselling. Six categories of nurse-led interventions were identified: health education, psychological support, respiratory exercises, medication guidance, nutritional support, and discharge instruction. These interventions were structured, delivered face-to-face and lasted 1-24 months. The interventions reported improvement in knowledge, adherence, psychological well-being, respiratory function, and nutritional status. Conclusions: Nurse-led interventions enhance outcomes for TB patients across diverse settings. Integrating structured, patient-centred strategies, and strengthening nursing capacity through training and supportive policy are essential for sustainable TB management.
