Nurses' attitude towards patient advocacy in a single tertiary care hospital.
Article in Nursing open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
aimTo determine nurses' attitude towards patient advocacy in a single tertiary care hospital.
designDescriptive/analytical cross-sectional studies.
methodsA comprehensive two-part questionnaire about nurses' views on nursing advocacy was administered to 371 nurses using a convenient random sampling. The first part included eight demographic variables, and the second part, the questionnaire, was used to measure nurses' attitude towards patient advocacy.
resultsNurses were more likely to act as patient advocate when their patient was in danger, and their employment was not at risk while acting as patient advocates. Female nurses scored higher than males; those with higher qualifications had higher behavioural and cognitive scores. A significant correlation was observed between cognitive (belief) aspects of attitude (p = .78, p ≤ .001) and behavioural (efficacy) aspects (p = .89, p ≤ .001).
