Self-efficacy and attitudes of nurses providing oral care in geriatric care facilities: A cross-sectional study in Shanghai.
Article in Nursing open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
aimsTo investigate nurses' self-efficacy and attitudes of providing oral care in geriatric care facilities (GCFs) and compare differences between individuals, facilities and countries.
designA cross-sectional and multicentre study.
methodsData were collected from 852 nurses in 42 GCFs using two scales, "Self-Efficacy for Providing Mouth Care" (SE-PMC) and "Attitudes for Providing Mouth Care" (A-PMC), and analysed using t-test and ANOVA.
resultsTotally 852 nurses (844 females, 99%) participated in this study with an effective response rate of 85.2%. Scores of SE-PMC and A-PMC of nurses varied significantly among GCFs with different sizes, types and years of establishment and differentiated among staff about the length of employment (p < .05). Nurses (N = 434) in North Carolina scored higher than nurses in Shanghai both in SE-PMC and A-PMC (p < .05). Establishment and implementation of Oral health promotion programmes were desired based on characteristics of different institutions and nurses' clinical ladder.
