Evidence Synthesis for the Development of National Nursing-Sensitive Indicators in Malaysia: A Literature Review and Stakeholder Engagement Approach.
Review in SAGE open nursing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Nursing-sensitive indicators measure and evaluate nursing care quality and its contribution to patient care. The identification of indicators that demonstrate nursing care contribution and the quality of care delivered locally is of paramount importance, and national indicators that demonstrate this are essential. This paper aims to provide an evidence base of nursing-sensitive indicators that can facilitate the conceptualization of local nursing national indicators. Method: A multifaceted and iterative approach incorporating literature review, and stakeholder engagements was utilized in evidence synthesis. A review of indicators present internationally complemented by the inclusion of context-specific local NSIs through stakeholder engagements was performed. Secondary data analysis of documents from an environmental scan was also included to highlight areas of concern for nursing-sensitive indicator prioritization from the viewpoint of nurses. Results: A total of 64 articles were reviewed and indicators were coded according to the Nursing Care Performance Framework subsystems, dimensions, and variables. All papers reviewed had documented outcome indicators. From our secondary data analysis, nurses identified areas of concern such as nursing staff supply, staff maintenance, nursing processes and risk outcomes, and safety to be prioritized for developing quality indicators. Conclusion: This paper provides a list of NSIs coded systematically with definitions to aid stakeholders in prioritizing indicators for national indicator development. The inclusion of areas of concern provides insight into NSIs that nurse practitioners find relevant to the local context. To our knowledge, this is the first paper that includes evidence available in the literature and incorporates stakeholders' perspectives in synthesizing evidence needed to guide the development of national nursing indicators. This iterative approach is crucial because it enhances the likelihood of knowledge translation.
