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

backgroundCultural competence, professional values, and spiritual well-being are among the topics that are widely considered today in response to turbulent and complex environments in organizations. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between cultural competence, professional values, and spiritual well-being of nursing interns.

methodsIn this study, a total of 200 nursing interns affiliated with universities of medical sciences in Tehran city (Tehran, Shahid Beheshti, and Iran) were included as participants. They were selected through convenience sampling. Data collection tools were the Medical Science Graduates' Cultural Competence Questionnaire, The Nurses Professional Values Scale-Revised (NPVS-R), and the Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS).

resultsThe mean scores of cultural competence, professional values, and spiritual well-being of nursing interns were 151.26 (7.14), 74.24 (10.62), and 71.23 (8.45), respectively. There was a significant relationship between cultural competence and professional values (r = 0.460, p < 0.001), and cultural competence and spiritual well-being (r = 0.489, p < 0.001) of nursing interns. The variables of professional values (β = 0.297, p < 0.001), spiritual well-being (β = 0.350, p < 0.001), and moderate economic status (β=-0.213, p = 0.005) were the most effective predictors of nursing interns' cultural competence.

conclusionThe cultural competence of nursing interns is influenced by their professional values and spiritual well-being. By implementing suitable educational strategies and providing support, educational managers can enhance the cultural competence of nursing interns. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
