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

backgroundLittle is known about how nursing students learned psychomotor skills during the COVID-19 pandemic.

aimsWhat is the lived experience of undergraduate nursing students learning psychomotor skills during the COVID-19 pandemic?

methodsUsing a phenomenological approach, eight undergraduate nursing students were interviewed about their experiences learning psychomotor skills during the pandemic.

resultsThematic analysis revealed three main themes. "Finding My Own Way" described adapting learning styles and advocacy for learning. Sub-themes included perseverance and comradery. "Learning the Skills" described modifications to skills learning. Sub-themes included grace by professors, smaller group sizes, less practice, and "my brain is split in half," describing the challenges of giving dual attention to COVID-19 and skills learning. "Stress of the Pandemic" described the stress of quarantine, isolation and online learning. DISCUSSION: Findings of this study may help nurse educators understand the challenges of learning skills during the pandemic. Implications are discussed.
