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

Objectives: There is currently no measure of the hospital organizational environment targeting both clinicians and nurses in China. This study was conducted with the aim of developing and testing an instrument to assess the properties of the hospital organizational environment that is applicable to Chinese medical staff. Methods: Items were developed based on a literature review, semi-structured interviews and an expert review and finalized based on corrected item-total correlation, content validity, construct validity, convergent validity, discriminant validity and reliability. The two samples for testing the first and final version of the Hospital Organizational Environment Scale (HOES) included 447 and 424 participants, respectively. Results: The primary test, which comprised 18 items, contained four factors: hospital culture, work situation, organizational support and scientific research situation. The Cronbach's alphas were 0.935, 0.824, 0.943, and 0.920, respectively. The results of the validation test showed that the questionnaire had good validity and reliability. Conclusion: The HOES is a comprehensive instrument with demonstrated validity and reliability that can be adopted among medical staff to assess the organizational environment in hospitals.
