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

Purpose: The Bedside Handover Attitudes and Behaviors questionnaire is a 32-item instrument originally developed in English that enables nurse managers to monitor the consistency of nurses' practice during the implementation of the Nursing Bedside Handover. We aimed to cross-culturally validate this questionnaire for the Portuguese population and to examine its psychometric properties. Methods: An exploratory-descriptive, quantitative, cross-sectional, and validation study was conducted. A sample of 241 nurses from a Portuguese acute care hospital participated in the field test. The questionnaire was cross-culturally adapted through translation, translation synthesis, and back-translation procedures, an expert committee harmonization, and two pre-tests. Results: We obtained one factorial solution through exploratory factor analysis that explained 53.5% of the total variance, with 18 items distributed by four components: Direct Engagement, Personal Interaction, Information Sharing, and Individualized Approach. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the four-factor factorial structure of the questionnaire X Conclusion: The questionnaire is valid and reliable for use by Portuguese nurse managers. This adapted version of the BHAB questionnaire can be applied by nurse managers to facilitate the implementation of Nursing Bedside Handover.
