Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
introductionPower is a complex and extensive concept in nursing, which has a decisive impact on the accomplishment of duties, satisfaction and achievement of professional goals. Explaining the concept of power in nursing from the perspective of nurses and accessing its various dimensions may result in a better understanding of this issue.
aimThis study was aimed to explore the concept of power in nursing, using the views and experiences of Iranian nurses. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study was a qualitative research which used a content analysis approach. Participants were selected from among nurses active in clinical, management, and educational practices using the purposive sampling method. Data were collected using a semi-structured individual interview. The results were obtained by analysing the data using an inductive approach and the constant comparison method.
resultsThe participants of this study regarded the power of nursing as a positive concept and the issue of power in nursing consisted of three classes, the genesis with the subclasses of "being purposeful", "being under the shadow of the profession nature", "being dependent on the source", strengthening with the subclasses of "being emotional and introverted", "being formed in the context of professional communication", "fluidity and flowing", and the evolution with the subclasses "based on human values", and "being a tool for professional excellence".
conclusionThe concept of power in nursing can be considered a purposeful issue based on the nurses' viewpoint which flourishes in the context of human, moral and caring nature of the nursing profession. According to its dependence on the nature of profession and on the basis of professional communication, Power of nursing grows with a fluidlike flowing structure, linked with human values, reaches maturity and results in outcomes such as improving the quality of care and professional excellence.
