1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundInnovation in the development and review of curriculums is one of the requirements of medical education in the present era. SPICES model has been taken into consideration by nursing faculties to promote quality of nursing education and to eliminate conventional curriculums. In Iran, for competency-based nursing education, review and development of curriculums are necessary.

objectiveThe objectives of the present study were to determine the implementation of SPICES model in nursing curriculums of Tehran (Iran), Western (Canada), and Hacettepe (Turkey) nursing faculties and also to present recommendations to operationalize it in the nursing curriculum of Iran. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study using comparative method with Brady's model was conducted in 2018. In this study, curriculums of nursing faculties of Tehran, Western Canada, and Hacettepe were compared. Data were extracted through texts and documents available at electronic pages of universities. Curriculums of these nursing faculties were compared from the perspective of SPICES model strategies (student-based, problem-based, integration, community-based, elective, and systematic) at four steps of description, interpretation, juxtaposition, and comparison.

resultsThe results showed that curriculums in Western Canada reside at the end of the innovative spectrum of SPICES model. Curriculums in Tehran and Hacettepe in most of the strategies of this model reside at the beginning of the spectrum, and in most cases, conventional methods were used.

conclusionsAccording to successful experiences of Western Canada in the implementation of SPICES model's strategies and also considering this fact that still conventional approaches are prevalent in Iran, it is recommended to focus on experiences and, according to social conditions and facilities of the nursing community, to implement necessary changes in the curriculums based on this model.
