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

introductionnurses are responsible for taking care of the health of the general public. Nurses´ own health is among the important factors affecting the quality of patient care. Self-Rated Health (SRH) is one of the indicators used extensively in health research for the assessment of the health status of individuals. The present study was conducted to evaluate self-rated health and its relationship with general procrastination in nurses.

methodsthe present cross-sectional study was conducted in 2019 on 305 Iranian nurses selected by stratified random sampling. The relationship of self-rated health with procrastination was determined using an ordinal logistic regression analysis after adjustments for personal and occupational factors.

resultsself-rated health was poor/bad in 11.3% of the nurses, fair in 23.7%, good in 34.3% and excellent in 30.7%. After adjustments for personal and occupational factors, a significant relationship was observed between procrastination and self-rated health (OR=0.95; 95%CI 0.92, 0.98).

conclusionthe results showed an unfavorable health status in nurses. Given the significant relationship between procrastination and poor self-rated health in nurses, it is essential to consider this relationship for improving nurses´ health.
