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

Objective: To explore the effectiveness of the four-step death education model based on constructivist learning theory in enhancing the death coping abilities and attitudes of trainee nurses and improving course satisfaction. Methods: Sixty-six trainee nurses from a tumour hospital in Shanxi Province were selected as the study subjects, and a class-experimental research design was adopted, in which the nursing students before the course implementation were taken as the control group and those after the course implementation were taken as the experimental group. Death Attitude Profile Revised Scale (DAP) was used to measure the cognitive attitude of nursing students towards death, and a self-made questionnaire was used to test the satisfaction of nursing students with the curriculum design. Paired sample Results: Post-course death avoidance score, fear of death score, and escape-orientated death acceptance score of the trainee nurses (all Conclusion: The four-step death education model based on constructivist learning theory significantly improved the death coping skills and attitudes of trainee nursing students. Although this educational model is still limited, it provides research materials for the future establishment of a systematic death education.
