A scoping review of autoethnography in nursing.
Article in International journal of nursing sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objective: Autoethnography combines personal experiences with cultural analysis, emerging as a response to the limitations of traditional ethnography. This review aimed to explore, describe, and delineate the utilization of autoethnography by nurses published in peer-reviewed journals. Methods: A scoping review was conducted according to the Arksey and O'Malley framework. On October 12, 2023, autoethnographic studies in nursing were identified through searches of CINAHL, PubMed, PsycINFO, and Scopus. Peer-reviewed articles published in English language were retrieved. We applied no date restriction. Data were extracted on nursing, epiphany, results, style of writing, implications for nursing, and ethical considerations. Results: Twenty-six articles met the inclusion criteria. Mental health nursing, covered by nine articles, elucidated experiences of stigma, ethical dilemmas, and professional identity. Nursing education, represented by seven articles, highlighted identity struggles, systemic biases, and evolving pedagogies. Palliative care, addressed by three articles, provided insights into communication challenges and emotional complexities in end-of-life care. The remaining articles explored rehabilitation, cultural competence, and chronic pain management. A conceptual framework integrating ontological, epistemological, ethical, and practical dimensions was developed, emphasizing the interplay between personal and professional roles. Conclusions: This review underscores autoethnography's value in uncovering the cultural and ethical dimensions of nursing. This framework advocates for a reflective, culturally attuned approach to healthcare, fostering transformative changes in nursing. Further research should explore underrepresented nursing specialties to harness autoethnography's potential fully.
