Compassionate care of nurses for the elderly admitted to the COVID-19 wards in teaching hospitals of southern Iran.
Article in BMC nursing, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundCompassionate care is the main indicator of the quality regarding nursing care. The importance of this care in the recovery process for the elderly hospitalized for COVID-19 has been under-researched in studies. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the compassionate care level of nurses to the elderly hospitalized in the COVID-19 wards of teaching hospitals in the south of Iran.
methodsThis descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 212 nurses working in the COVID-19 wards of teaching hospitals in the south of Iran, who were selected through census in a cross-sectional study. The data were collected using the Tehranineshat et al. nurses' compassionate care questionnaire and then the data were analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistics along with SPSS software version 22.
resultsThe mean score of nurses' compassionate care was 130.18 ± 9.42, which was at a high level. The highest and lowest scores were related to professional performance (43.17 ± 2.799) and empathic communication dimension (27.76 ± 2.970). No significant relationship was found between variables such as gender, marital status, education, work experience, and job position with the compassionate care score (P > 0.05).
conclusionNurses providing care for hospitalized elderly are recommended to consider all aspects of compassionate care, especially empathic communication, in their educational planning.
