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

Background: A programme of research (PoR) is a cohesive and succinct expression of a researcher's area of interest, capturing their passions and commitments, as well as their capabilities. A PoR takes the form of a series of related research projects with a specific focus on a knowledge gap, related to the researcher's discipline. One way in which a PoR can be supported is through the articulation of a clear research aim and capability statement. Aims: This paper aims to provide early career researchers (ECRs) with a process to develop their own capability statements, providing examples from a professional development activity undertaken by the authors. Results: This paper provides a five-step process for researchers to develop their own capability statement and gives examples and prompts to support this. Conclusion and contribution to nursing: Reflections on the value of this process are provided, demonstrating a gap in current ECR processes in articulating their own capabilities.
