The Experiences of Student Nurses With Dyslexia in Clinical Practice in the United Kingdom: A Literature Review.
Synthesis in Journal of advanced nursing, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimTo explore the experiences of student nurses with dyslexia in clinical practice in the United Kingdom.
designA systematic literature review of qualitative research.
methodsThree databases-CINAHL, MEDLINE and the British Education Index, were searched for original articles, using keywords to find peer-reviewed papers published between 1995 and 2024. Two reviewers independently evaluated the studies for inclusion, and the selected studies were critically appraised using the CASP tools. The extracted data were thematically analysed and synthesised.
resultsSix studies were identified. Thematic analysis revealed four themes: Disclosing dyslexia, patient safety, compensatory coping strategies and support from practice assessors/supervisors.
conclusionsStudent nurses with dyslexia have a variety of difficulties in clinical practice that call for continual assistance from their practice supervisors and assessors, including ward managers. Students must reveal their dyslexia to receive support, which can be a difficult and complicated process. Students should capitalise on their skills and employ compensating coping mechanisms to maintain patient safety. Further research is required to explore appropriate adjustments and the current level of help needed to support student nurses with dyslexia. NO PATIENT OR PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT: This study did not include patient or public involvement in its design, conduct or reporting.
