Confidence, skills and barriers to ostomy patient care by nursing staff in Saudi Arabia.
Article in Nursing forum, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
aimThis study examined the confidence level and perceived barriers to providing ostomy care among staff nurses in Saudi Arabia.
backgroundPatients with ostomies experience increased comfort and satisfaction when nurses are confident in their knowledge and skills.
designA descriptive, cross-sectional design was used to conduct the research. The study included a convenience sample of 214 staff nurses from five hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The researchers used a survey questionnaire to gauge participants' confidence in their knowledge and skills, as well as identify any perceived barriers to ostomy care.
resultOverall, 95.1% of participants worked in adult care and 82.2% worked in surgical areas. There were significant relationships between the nurses' confidence in their ostomy care knowledge and skills and their years of nursing experience and having received ostomy care training in nursing school (p < .05); however, the nurses' level of education had no correlation (p > .05).
conclusionWhile the majority of nurses were confident in their ability to care for patients with ostomies, they were concerned about causing stoma problems. This suggests that improving the quality of ostomy care provided by nurses may result in fewer negative outcomes for patients with ostomies.
