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

backgroundOne of the basic goals of nursing education is to upgrade students' patient communication skills. In this regard, students' experiences in relationships with patients can be the cornerstone of their knowledge. Therefore, the present study's objective was to divulge nursing students' experiences in communicating with patients during their study course. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe qualitative method used in this research involved conventional content analysis. The study participants were nursing students, both undergraduate and graduate, in Iran who were selected through purposeful sampling. The research took place in 2022 at the hospital or the nursing and midwifery faculty of the Birjand University of Medical Sciences. In total, 12 interviews were conducted until data saturation was reached. The interviews were carried out in clinical settings as per the students' preferences, where they interacted with patients. Each interview lasted 45-60 minutes, typically in one or two sessions.

resultsData analysis resulted in the extraction of 37 subcategories, 10 categories, and five themes. All the concepts that emerged during conventional content analysis revolved around nursing students' experiences and were in line with the study's objectives. The themes included sustainability of communication, divergent communication, communicational modeling, patient communication as the missing component of clinical nursing education, and communication as the essence of care.

conclusionIt is necessary to pay special attention to and enrich nursing educational curricula with patient communication courses and play the role of appropriate communicational models that can help greatly promote the health of patients.
