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

Nurses play an important role in palliative care, and their willingness to engage in such work is thus crucial. The purpose of this study was to develop, and test the reliability and validity of, the Nurses' Willingness to Engage in Palliative Care Scale. The sample consisted of 224 Chinese nurses with a mean age of 32.36 (SD, 5.986) years. The critical ratio method was used for item analysis. Reliability was assessed by calculating Cronbach α. Content validity was assessed by calculating a content validity index based on ratings from 5 nursing experts. Structural validity was calculated by exploratory factor analysis. The developed scale consists of 20 items over 4 dimensions (attitude toward the behavior, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and behavioral intention) and has high content validity (0.97). The reliability of the scale was found to be sufficient (Cronbach α = .896). Four common factors were extracted from exploratory factor analysis, and the cumulative variance explained was 68.938%. The Nurses' Willingness to Engage in Palliative Care Scale has good reliability and validity and can be used to assess nurses' willingness to work in palliative care units.
