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
aimThis study aimed to assess the relationship between compulsory citizenship behavior and nurses' silence.
methodsA descriptive cross-sectional online study was conducted in October 2023, targeting 402 nurses working in Yichang Central People's Hospital, Hubei Province, China. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire comprising demographic details, the Compulsory Citizenship Behavior Scale, and the Nurses' Silence Scale. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS 25.0, including descriptive statistics, t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and hierarchical regression analyses.
resultsThe study revealed that the overall mean score for nurses' compulsory citizenship behavior was 14.63 (3.99), while the overall mean score for nurses' silence was 32.78 (8.28). Significant differences in compulsory citizenship behavior scores were observed among nurses with varying levels of work experience (P < 0.05). Similarly, significant variations in silence scores were identified according to work experience and employment type (P < 0.05). After adjusting for work experience and employment type, a significant correlation was identified between compulsory citizenship behavior and nurses' silence (P < 0.05).
conclusionsNurses exhibited moderate levels of compulsory citizenship behavior and silence. Additionally, a significant positive correlation was revealed between compulsory citizenship behavior and nurses' silence. RECOMMENDATION: Nursing administrators should implement targeted measures to lower compulsory citizenship behavior, thereby fostering a more open and communicative environment within the organization, and encouraging nurses to express their opinions more freely.
