Person-Centered Care, Care Climate, and Quality of Life: Evidence From Inpatient Settings in Kazakhstan.
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
backgroundPerson-centered care (PCC) is recognized as a core indicator of high-quality nursing and organizational performance. Although PCC and supportive care climates have been associated with patient outcomes, limited evidence exists from Central Asia on how these factors relate to patients' quality of life (QOL).
aimTo examine associations between adult inpatients' perceptions of PCC, the care climate, and their QOL in Kazakhstan.
designCross-sectional analytical study.
methodsA total of 255 adult inpatients from two public hospitals completed the Patient-Centered Inpatient Scale (P-CIS), the Person-Centered Climate Questionnaire-Patient version (PCQ-P), and the WHOQOL-BREF. Multivariable linear regression was used to examine associations between PCC, care climate, sociodemographic variables, and QOL across physical, psychological, social, and environmental domains.
resultsIn the adjusted models, overall PCC experience was associated with psychological, social relationships, and environmental QOL, while overall PCC climate was associated with physical and psychological QOL. Across the four models, R
conclusionsOverall PCC experience and PCC climate were associated with selected QOL domains after adjustment, while associations involving individual PCC dimensions were observed only in bivariate analyses and should therefore be interpreted cautiously. Given the exploratory nature of the analyses, the absence of formal adjustment for multiple comparisons, and the modest explanatory power of the adjusted models, the findings should not be interpreted as evidence of independent or causal effects. Communication, patient involvement, and culturally responsive care remain important considerations for nursing management. However, patients' QOL is likely shaped by a broader combination of clinical, social, and contextual factors beyond PCC alone. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Nurse managers play a critical role in shaping care environments that support empowerment, cultural responsiveness, and effective information exchange. Strengthening communication systems, ensuring linguistic and cultural accessibility, and supporting relational competence among staff may help strengthen PCC and patient-reported care experiences.
