Association of nursing hours with cognitive function, balance, and dependency level of stroke patients.
Observational study in Nursing open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 examine the association of nursing hours given to patients with stroke with clinical characteristics to predict the nursing care needs.
designTwenty-four-hour observational study
methodsNursing hours per patient day (NHPPD) of 171 stroke patients were measured by 146 nursing personnel who worked on the day of the observation. Cognitive function, balance ability and dependency level were assessed using the Korean version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE), the Korean version of the Berg Balance Scale (K-BBS) and the Korean version of the Modified Barthel Index (K-MBI), respectively.
resultsThe NHPPD were moderately correlated with K-MMSE (r = -.450), K-BBS (r = -.529) and K-MBI (r = -.549). The worse the cognitive function, balance ability and dependency level, the more were the nursing hours given to the patients. Therefore, these factors can be considered to be factors that predict nursing care needs for patients with stroke.
