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

Nurses are at increased risk of making professional errors due to a combination of interrelated factors. We investigated the effects of sleepiness, fatigue, psychological hardiness, and demographic factors on the frequency of medical errors among active nurses. A cross-sectional study was conducted including 346 (47.7% males) nurses from two hospitals in Tehran, Iran. All participants had at least a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. A machine-learning model showed good performance in predicting the frequency of occupational errors with an average (SD) root mean squared error of 2.82 (0.55), mean absolute error of 1.57 (0.38), and R-squared of 0.53 (0.19). Nurses with higher hardiness showed fewer errors, while those with greater sleepiness and fatigue reported more. Experience and age were negatively correlated with error frequency. This study provided insights into nurse well-being and patient safety and highlighted the complex relationships between psychological and physiological factors in occupational errors.
