Enhancing holistic nursing care for sexual and gender minorities: A scoping review of global training initiatives.
Review in Health SA = SA Gesondheid, 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
Background: Holistic nursing care integrates the physical, social, spiritual and psychological dimensions of well-being. Sexual and gender minority (SGM) groups experience healthcare disparities because of non-inclusive policies. To provide culturally competent care, nurses must receive training in addressing the needs of SGM individuals. Aim: This review synthesises evidence on the training nurses receive to deliver holistic care to SGM groups. Methods: Four electronic health databases - MEDLINE, Web of Science, ProQuest (Nursing & Allied) and EBSCOhost (CINAHL) - were searched for articles on nurses' training for holistic care of SGM people, published between 2021 and 2025. Screening and reporting adhered to PRISMA flowchart guidelines, and Population, Concept and Context framework was utilised. Results: Three key themes emerged: the beneficial outcomes of healthcare training for nurses on SGM issues, factors hindering nurses from providing holistic care to SGM groups and characteristics of content in nursing education. Conclusion: Programmes aimed at equipping nurses to deliver holistic nursing care to SGM individuals require improvements in both their duration and delivery methods. It is imperative for higher education institutions to prioritise the provision of training on SGM issues for nurse educators, as this initiative is essential for substantially improving curriculum development. Collaboration among stakeholders can enhance healthcare outcomes for SGM groups. Contribution: This review can inform policies affecting SGM individuals, while helping develop a culturally competent workforce.
