Evaluation of advanced practice nurse competencies: validation of an instrument for primary care.
Article in Revista latino-americana de enfermagem, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveto evaluate the construct validity and reliability of the Brazilian version of the Instrument for the Evaluation of Advanced Practice Nurse Competencies in Primary Health Care.
methodmethodological study carried out in 78 primary health care centers in the southeast of Brazil, with 215 nurses. Data was collected using three instruments: the sample characterization form, the Brazilian version of the Advanced Practice Nurse Competency Assessment Instrument and the Therapeutic Interventions category of the Nurse Competency Scale. Construct validity was verified using confirmatory factor analysis and Spearman's correlation coefficient. Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability.
resultsin the factor analysis, the model converged on a satisfactory result, with six items excluded, resulting in an instrument with 38 items distributed over eight dimensions. In convergent construct validity, positive, significant correlations were observed (p<0.0001) and ranged from weak to moderate in magnitude (r=0.2701 and r=0.397). Satisfactory evidence was found through the Composite Reliability analysis (0.78-0.89).
conclusionthe instrument showed evidence of construct validity and internal consistency. It could be used to help implement strategies for developing advanced practice in nursing.
