From ICU Survival to Recovery: A Somalia-Adapted Nurse-Led Home Recovery Framework After Critical Illness in Low-Resource Settings.
Article in Journal of healthcare leadership, 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
Survival from critical illness is not equivalent to recovery, particularly in low-resource health systems where ICU survivors may return home with weakness, respiratory vulnerability, medication problems, poor wound care, malnutrition, psychological distress, caregiver burden, and limited follow-up. This commentary responds to the post-ICU care gap in Somalia by proposing a Somalia-adapted nurse-led home recovery framework. The framework is not presented as a fully validated intervention, but as a pragmatic implementation model for settings where ICU beds, rehabilitation services, transport, digital access, and specialist follow-up are constrained. It defines nurse-led home care as a tiered pathway coordinated by an ICU discharge nurse, supported by ward nurses, community health workers, physicians, rehabilitation providers, and referral facilities. The model includes risk stratification, discharge preparation, caregiver education, early phone follow-up, selective home visits, multidisciplinary referral, digital communication safeguards, and outcome tracking. Key implementation issues include workforce capacity, financing, supervision, quality indicators, privacy, medico-legal responsibility, transport barriers, gendered caregiver burden, and the digital divide. Strengthening post-ICU home recovery in Somalia requires local empirical evaluation, but immediate low-cost improvements can begin through structured discharge and follow-up systems.
