Article in Nursing & health sciences, 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
Pain affects various aspects of nursing home residents' lives and their quality of life. The Integrated Conceptual Model of Quality of Life for Older Adults provides a holistic framework to understand factors influencing quality of life. Especially in Austria, knowledge about pain and its management in nursing home residents' daily lives is lacking. Therefore, this study assesses pain and pain management in Austrian nursing home residents' daily lives in the context of the mentioned model. Data were collected in semi-structured interviews with 28 nursing home residents (median age 85.5/75% female), using an interview guide based on the model. A content-structuring qualitative content analysis was carried out. Interviewees often report that they did not want to be a burden, indicating that limiting beliefs may contribute to their reluctance to seek help. They emphasized that support from nursing staff was inadequate due to the lack of time, skills, and offered pain management options. Many interviewees used additional interventions to treat pain themselves. Overall, the Austrian situation appears to be consistent with findings in other countries.
