Managers' Experiences in Implementing Internet Plus Nursing Service in China: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Journal of nursing management, 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 describe the experiences of managers directly involved in O2O-style Internet Plus Nursing Service (IPNS) in China.
methodsA descriptive qualitative study design was used. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 24 participants, including 18 hospital-based nurse managers and 6 platform managers, using maximum variation purposive sampling.
resultsFour main themes were identified: (1) extending care and professional value beyond hospital walls (optimizing the delivery of continuity of care and elevating nurses' professional fulfillment and growth drive); (2) mobilizing nursing resources amid workforce constraints (underutilization of service potential, divergent views on nurse turnover, and difficulty in utilizing community nursing resources); (3) managing service delivery across organizational boundaries (difficulty in launching the service, lack of support and assurance, and weak and challenging service regulation); and (4) building conditions for sustainable development (refining rules and division of labor, increasing publicity, and developing sustainable market-oriented mechanisms).
conclusionThe study highlights both the benefits and challenges experienced by managers involved in O2O-style IPNS. Sustainable development of this model requires clearer regulatory boundaries, stronger institutional support, improved platform-hospital coordination, and greater recognition of nurses' professional roles beyond hospital settings. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Nursing managers should strengthen workforce planning through flexible staffing, targeted training, and appropriate incentive mechanisms. Health authorities, hospitals, and service platforms should jointly clarify responsibilities, standardize quality monitoring and documentation procedures, and provide regulatory guidance to support the safe and scalable development of O2O-style IPNS.
