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
Aim: The aim of this study is to explore the effects of ethical leadership on nurses' organizational silence and the mediating role of organizational justice. Background: Organizational silence is considered to be an unethical and destructive influence on healthcare organizations. Ethical leadership has an important influence on nurses' organizational silence. Yet, the effect of mechanism among ethical leadership, nurses' organizational silence, and the perceived organizational justice remains unknown. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 896 nurses in 11 hospitals in Henan Province, China, using a stratified sampling method. Data were analyzed using correlation analysis, one-way analysis of variance, and PROCESS macro. Results: Chinese nurses spoke highly of the ethical leadership of their nurse managers. Organizational justice and silence among nurses were at moderate levels. Ethical leadership significantly predicted nurses' organizational justice ( Conclusion: Developing ethical leadership and improving organizational justice for nurses are critical to reduce organizational silence among nurses.
