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

objectiveTo understand Brazilian forensic nursing from experts' perspective.

methodA qualitative study, carried out with nurses specialized in forensic nursing. Data collection was done through an electronic questionnaire applied between February and May 2023, composed of questions about socio-professional and performance characteristics. The data were organized by lexicographic analysis by IRAMUTEQ, analyzed from the perspective of Bardin's content analysis.

resultsFifty-five experts who worked in the five Brazilian regions participated, with the largest participation from the Northeast and Southeast regions, both with 41.8% of professionals. The majority reported being women, white, mostly married or in a stable union. From the association of classes presented in the dendrogram generated by IRAMUTEQ, five categories related to the Descending Hierarchical Classification lexical terms were generated: 1) Creation of forensic nursing and its political development in national territory; 2) Establishment of environments for forensic nursing practice according to national/cultural reality; 3) Already established competencies of Brazilian forensic nursing; 4) Paths to success in Brazilian forensic nursing; and 5) Perspectives for Brazilian forensic nursing.

conclusionThe study allowed contextualizing the current scenario of Brazilian forensic nursing. The results revealed violence as the focus of the actions developed by the specialty. Finally, it was possible to relate forensic nursing experts' knowledge and experiences, enabling the understanding of the path already taken and what still needs to be followed, such as the development of public policies that include forensic nursing practice.
