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

aimsTo investigate public perceptions of telenursing in South Korea, an Asian country that is transitioning to the introduction of telenursing and possesses a high level of information and communication technology. This study sought to uncover strategies for the successful introduction and extension of telenursing by identifying the characteristics of existing perceptions.

designQ methodology was applied.

methodsA total of 188 Q populations were selected from the literature, Internet sources, newspaper articles and in-depth interviews about telenursing, from which the final 37 Q statements were derived. Forty-nine people who were expected to have diverse perspectives about telenursing were selected purposively and participated in Q-sorting. The data were obtained from November 2022 to December 2022 and analysed with principal component analysis and varimax rotations using PQMethod version 2.11.

resultsFive types of perceptions regarding telenursing in South Korea were identified: 'Factor I: Preference for convenience and efficiency of telenursing, Active acceptance', 'Factor II: Complete support for telenursing, Total acceptance', 'Factor III: Complete skepticism for telenursing, Total nonacceptance', 'Factor IV: Expectance of the supplementary roles of telenursing, Immediate acceptance' and 'Factor V: Expectance of the supplementary roles of telenursing, Prolonged acceptance'. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Patients and the public were not involved in this study's design, recruitment and implementation.
