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

objectivesTo investigate the impact of standardised training on nursing assistants (NAs) and explore the factors influencing training effectiveness, specifically focusing on learning motivation and learning obstacles.

designA cross-sectional study was conducted from August 2022 to September 2022.

settingThe study was conducted in Fujian Province, China.

participantsA total of 412 participants were included in this study. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: Training effectiveness, learning motivation, learning obstacles and learning engagement were the primary outcome measures.

methodsA survey was conducted on research NAs who were participating in standardised training in Fujian Province, China. The survey used general information questionnaires, educational participation scales, general suitability scales for participation barriers, blended learning participation scales and training effectiveness questionnaires.

resultsThe overall score of the training effectiveness questionnaires was 98.08±15.52, with an average score per item of 4.26±0.67. Univariate analysis revealed significant associations between the number of working years, self-rated health status, acceptance of NAs work and training effectiveness (p<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that learning motivation, learning obstacles and learning engagement were independent factors influencing training effectiveness (F=171.073, p<0.001).

conclusionLearning motivation, learning obstacles and learning engagement all affect training effectiveness, which provides a clear direction for improving the effectiveness of training for NAs. In order to improve the training effectiveness of healthcare aides, it is necessary for clinical managers to focus on their learning motivation, learning obstacles and learning engagement.
