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

AIM(S): To determine relationships among missed nursing care, job enjoyment and intention to leave for neonatal nurses.

backgroundBeing unable to provide required nursing care to infants could contribute to poorer neonatal nurse job outcomes, which may exacerbate staffing challenges. Little evidence exists about how missed nursing care relates to neonatal nurse job outcomes. METHOD(S): The design was cross-sectional. Secondary data from the 2016 National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators Registered Nurse Survey were used, which included nurse ratings of job enjoyment, intention to leave and missed nursing care. American Hospital Association data from 2016 were used to describe hospitals. Linear and logistic regressions were calculated.

resultsThere were 5,824 neonatal nurses. Mean nurse job enjoyment was 4.26 out of 6 (SD = 0.97). On average, 15% of nurses intended to leave their position. Each one unit increase in missed nursing care was associated with a 0.26 decrease in job enjoyment and a 29% increased odds of intention to leave after controlling for nursing and hospital characteristics.

conclusionsMissed nursing care can influence nurse job enjoyment and intention to leave in neonatal care units. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Neonatal nurse managers should address missed nursing care to improve neonatal nurse job outcomes.
