Evaluation of the Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of Intensive Care Unit Nurses Regarding Eye Care: A Descriptive Study.
Article in Nursing & health sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Eye care is an essential component of nursing practices in intensive care units (ICUs) due to the vulnerability of critically ill patients to ocular complications. The study aims to evaluate ICU nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding eye care. This descriptive study, involved 207 ICU nurses from Turkey. Data were collected using the Nurse Introductory Information Form and the Eye Care Clinical Competence Questionnaire. The nurses' mean age was 34.37 ± 7.81. The study found that 54.1% did not record eye problems, and 25% cited excessive paperwork as a barrier. Nurses who followed current studies scored higher on the Eye Care Clinical Competence Questionnaire (p = 0.036). Additionally, holding an intensive care certificate significantly improved application sub-dimension and total scale scores (p = 0.020, p = 0.023). Educational level significantly impacts ICU nurses' ability to provide eye care, though they face various obstacles in its delivery.
