Examining the Long-Term Impact of COVID-19-Induced Clinical Practice Changes on Problem-Solving Behaviors Among Newly Graduated Nurses: A Longitudinal Study.
Article in SAGE open nursing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: This study aimed to longitudinally examine how the cancellation or modification of the clinical practicum due to COVID-19 affected the nursing practice competence of newly graduated nurses in Japan. Methods: A survey was conducted across three periods-June, September, and December 2022-to seek responses from participants. A total of 73 participants (two men and 71 women) who responded in all periods were included in the analysis. The survey included questions on the impact of the integrated and specific clinical practicums, including a self-assessment scale for nursing problem-solving behaviors. Results: During all response periods, those whose practicums were entirely clinical scored significantly higher in nursing problem-solving behaviors. Furthermore, by December, "psychological support to patients for overcoming challenges" improved alongside the clinical experience of newly graduated nurses. However, their practical skills related to aggregating information, identifying improvements in nursing problems, facilitating smooth patient interactions, and individualizing assistance were challenging to improve along with clinical experience. Conclusion: This study revealed that canceling or modifying the clinical practicum owing to COVID-19 impacted the problem-solving behaviors of newly graduated nurses.
