Nurses' confidence in starting a new venture, startup or project in the context of nurse-led hackathons: Results of prehackathon survey.
Article in Nursing outlook. 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
backgroundA hackathon framework has been successfully applied to solving health care challenges, including COVID-19, without much documented evidence of nurses' baseline or acquired confidence. PURPOSE: To understand differences in baseline confidence levels in starting a new venture, startup or project in the context of nurse-led hackathons.
methodA retrospective secondary analysis of a presurvey of hackathon participants from two NurseHack4Health (NH4H) events held in 2021. DISCUSSION: Male nurses and international nurses were more confident than the U.S.-based nurses. When comparing the 75% of participants who had not attended a hackathon previously to the 25% of participants who had, there was an increased confidence level among non-nurses and among participants with the previous hackathon, datathon, and ideation experience.
conclusionIf hackathons can help nurses identify strengths, add new expertise and boost confidence, it may empower nurses to pursue their ideas more effectively, aid professional growth, and provide affirmation of innovator self-identity.
