Nurses' and Physicians' Experiences With Digital Remote Patient Monitoring-Transforming the Boundaries of Breast Cancer Care.
Article in Journal of clinical nursing, 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
aimTo explore expectations and experiences of nurses and physicians with remote care monitoring for breast cancer patients within the Norwegian specialist health service.
designQualitative exploratory study.
methodsIndividual semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine nurses and physicians before and after the implementation of remote patient monitoring. The data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis.
resultsThree key themes were developed: (1) 'Navigating patient empowerment: Reassurance, misinterpretation and guidance in remote patient monitoring communication'; (2) 'Digital care impacts the workflow: Efficiency gains and hidden burdens'; and (3) 'Clinical judgement in a digital context: Balancing standardisation and clinical discretion'.
conclusionWhile remote patient monitoring increased flexibility and targeted follow-up, it also reshaped roles and workloads and introduced new interpretive demands that often lack formal delegation, highlighting the need for clearer task allocation and organisational support. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION: Remote patient monitoring expands nurses' roles in symptom assessment and digital follow-up. As such, clear role boundaries and support for clinical judgement are essential for its successful implementation. IMPACT: The results are relevant for management in healthcare services, nurses and other healthcare professionals implementing remote patient monitoring. REPORTING
methodThe study followed CORQ guidelines. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Four user representatives with lived experience of breast cancer contributed to the design of the study and gave input regarding the interview guide.
