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

backgroundUndergraduate nursing students' interpersonal skills are closely related to their clinical nursing competence, yet research on the effects of interpersonal sensitivity on interpersonal skills and its mediating mechanisms is not found.

objectiveTo investigate the effects of interpersonal sensitivity on undergraduate nursing students' interpersonal skills and the mediating role of self-efficacy and subjective well-being.

methodsThis study was a cross-sectional design conducted in Henan Province, China, from March to April 2024, using convenience sampling method, questionnaires using Interpersonal Competence Questionnaire, Interpersonal Sensitivity Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Index of Well-Being were administered to 745 undergraduate nursing students. The resulting data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0, and structural equation modeling was constructed using Amos 26.0 to explore the mediating role of self-efficacy and subjective well-being between interpersonal sensitivity and interpersonal skill.

resultsThe interpersonal skill of undergraduate nursing students was at a moderate level (M ± SD: 116.16 ± 29.383), and interpersonal sensitivity had a significant negative effect on interpersonal skill (r = -0.373, p < 0.01). Self-efficacy and subjective well-being acted as chain mediators between interpersonal sensitivity and interpersonal skill, accounting for 6.51% of the total effect.

conclusionNursing educators should emphasize the effect of interpersonal sensitivity on interpersonal skills and take feasible measures to improve the self-efficacy and subjective well-being of undergraduate nursing students to promote their interpersonal skills.
