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

aimThis study aimed to identify the modules of the End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium-Japan Core Curriculum (ELNEC-J), which are particularly necessary for second- to fourth-year nurses. METHODOLOGY: This cross-sectional study recruited certified nurse specialists in cancer nursing (CNSCNs) endorsed by the Japanese Nursing Association enrolled in Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) in Japan. We asked individuals who were active members of the volunteer association of CNSCNs in the Tokai region to participate via email, and we collected data using Google Forms. The participants were asked about their background, including APRN experience and current position. Furthermore, we asked them to select three necessary modules for second- to fourth-year nurses' education from the 10 modules of the ELNEC-J.

resultsThe study recruited a total of 19 (89%) APRNs (response rate: 100%). Out of them, 14 (73.6%) had more than six years of clinical experience in APRNs, and 12 (63.1%) held managerial positions. Regarding the 10 modules of the ELNEC-J, the responses for the necessary modules were as follows: nursing care at end-of-life 13 (68.4%), pain management 12 (63.2%), symptom management 10 (52.6%), communication 10 (52.6%), and ethical issues in palliative care nursing five (31.6%).

conclusionAccording to the perspective of APRNs responsible for palliative care education for incumbent nurses, nursing care at the end of life, pain management, symptom management, and communication are required for second- to fourth-year nurse education.
