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

Background: Social prescribing is a community-based strategy to address older adults' needs. In primary healthcare, nurses are key in linking individuals with community resources, but evidence on their implementation of this practice is limited. Aims: To explore primary healthcare nurses' perspectives on effective social prescribing interventions using the Fundamental Care Model. Methods: A descriptive qualitative study was conducted with nurses through focus groups. Data were analysed using thematic analysis and interpreted through the relational, integrative and contextual dimensions of the Fundamental Care Model. Results: Social prescribing was seen as a relational practice based on trust. Group physical activity, health literacy and cultural activities effectively promoted autonomy and social participation. Key barriers included transportation issues, limited consultation time and uneven resource availability. Conclusion: Social prescribing is a viable strategy to support older adults' autonomy. This study operationalises the Fundamental Care Model within community nursing practice and provides evidence to inform nursing-led social prescribing strategies and health policy integration through organisational support and intersectoral collaboration.
