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

backgroundThis study was conducted methodologically to evaluate the Turkish validity and reliability of the Feeling Safe During Surgery Scale and to assess its suitability for the Turkish population.

methodsThis methodological validity and reliability study collected data from 148 patients who underwent elective surgery with regional anesthesia in the general surgery clinics of a university hospital in Istanbul between May 2022 – October 2022. Data were obtained through face-to-face interviews with patients using the Patient Information Form, developed by the researchers based on the literature, and the Turkish version of the Feeling Safe During Surgery Scale, originally created in Swedish. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Amos 26 was used for data analysis.

resultsThe content validity index of the scale was determined to be 0.96. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the Turkish version of the Feeling Safe During Surgery Scale was acceptably compatible with the original scale. The adapted Turkish version was found to have a comprehensible language structure and appropriate content. Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the total score was α=0.839, indicating a high level of reliability. Consequently, the Turkish version of the Feeling Safe During Surgery Scale was determined to be valid, reliable, and stable over time.

conclusionThe Turkish version of the Feeling Safe During Surgery Scale is a valid and reliable instrument that can be used in the Turkish population for assessing the sense of safety in patients undergoing elective surgery with regional anesthesia in surgical units.
