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

objectiveTo compare the differences between the work competencies self-reported by nurse aides' and those perceived by nurses.

methodA cross-sectional survey was employed. The settings were units implemented a skill mix model institution in Taiwan. The instruments consisted of the participants' demographic data and a nurse aide work competence scale.

resultsThe results indicated that the nurse aides had room for improvement in terms of "problem solving" and "activity design". The nurse aides and nurses differed significantly in terms of the nurse aides' competence in "activity design", as the nurse aides reported themselves to be more competent in "activity design" than reported by the nurses.

conclusionNurse aides should be incorporated into cross-disciplinary teams. Activity design should be handled by other healthcare providers such as physical therapists or senior social workers.
