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
backgroundSpiritual leadership emphasizes that nurses encounter situations that require compassion, empathy, and a deep understanding of the human experience. Passion can drive nurses' motivation, engagement, and commitment to patient care. Altruism is a core value in nursing that involves selfless concern for the well-being of others. Spiritual leadership might be an essential organizational resource in enhancing followers' inspiring vision, compassion for others, and passion for their work. AIM OF THE STUDY: To investigate the role of spiritual leadership in the relationship between altruism and passion for work among nurse colleagues. SUBJECTS &
methodA multicenter descriptive, cross-sectional research study was conducted at six Nursing Egyptian faculties affiliated with Alexandria, Port-Said, Fayoum, Damanhur, Assiut, and Sohag Universities, with 391 nurse colleagues. DATA COLLECTION TOOLS: Personal and Job-related Data Questionnaire, Spiritual Leadership Questionnaire (SLQ), Passion Scale, and 9- Self-Report Altruism Scale (9- SRA) were utilized to collect data.
resultsThe current study verified that nurse colleagues had high levels of perceived spiritual leadership, passion, and altruism (50.9, 47.6, and 40.2, respectively). The results revealed noteworthy positive correlations between spiritual leadership, passion, and altruism (r = 0.644, 0.519, & 0.509). Furthermore, mediation analysis highlighted that spiritual leadership could mediate the effect of altruism on the passion level.
conclusionThis study delivers valued insights into the crucial role of spiritual leadership in augmenting nurse colleagues' altruistic tendencies and passion. RECOMMENDATIONS: Cultivating workplace spirituality on a daily agenda is a key component of management that requires spiritual competencies from nurse leaders. These competencies ultimately enhance passion for work, performance, and altruistic behaviors.
