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

backgroundNurses should possess the ability to deliver concise oral presentations. Strong oral presentation skills can improve the quality of nurse-client communication, enhance teamwork among healthcare professionals, and contribute to professional development, leadership, and promotion. This study aimed to determine psychometric evaluation of the Persian version of the oral presentation evaluation scale in nursing students.

methodsThe study aimed to translate the oral presentation evaluation scale (OPES) into Persian using the standard translation and re-translation method. After the translation, the scale was distributed among 474 nursing students of various levels using the available sampling method. The scale's reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha coefficient and test-retest repeatability. The construct validity was determined using the confirmatory factor analysis.

resultsThe Persian questionnaire consists of 15 items and is divided into three categories: accuracy of content, effective communication, and speech clarity. The overall score for the content validity index (S-CVI) was 0.94. The three-factor questionnaire's fitness indices were RMSEA = 0.070, comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.96, goodness-of-fit index (GFI) = 0.91, and adjusted goodness-of-fit index (AGFI) = 0.88. The intra-cluster correlation index (ICC) was 0.965, and Cronbach's alpha was 0.875.

conclusionThe study found that the 15-item oral presentation evaluation scale Persian Survey is reliable for assessing nursing students' oral presentation skills.
