Perceived Learning Needs of Hospitalised Cancer Patients and Nurses.
Article in Nursing open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimTo understand the differences in perceived learning needs between cancer patients and nurses.
designA cross-sectional descriptive design.
methodsData were collected from 1147 cancer patients and 1000 nurses using a convenience sampling method from February 2022 to June 2023. Sociodemographic data of patients and nurses were collected through a self-designed general information questionnaire. Patients and nurses completed the Revised Chinese version of the Patient Learning Needs Scale to identify their perceptions of the learning needs and the difference between patient and nurse knowledge of needs.
resultsAccording to cancer patients and nurses, the top learning needs were information on complications and symptoms. In contrast, patients perceived the lowest priority learning needs to be disease-related issues, while nurses perceived the lowest priority learning needs to be daily treatment and activities.
conclusionsPatients and nurses have different views on the essential contents to be learned, highlighting the importance of considering these two aspects in formulating health education programmes. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Participating cancer patients and nurses took the time to complete the questionnaire during the data collection phase and answered the questions sincerely.
