Predictive Validity of Preadmission Assessment on Early Nursing Academic Readiness: Impact of COVID-19.
Article in Nurse educator. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundWhile numerous studies have predicted early nursing school success to determine the criterion-related validity of admission tests, few studies have evaluated the predictive validity of these tests in the context of the impact of COVID-19. PURPOSE: This study examined the predictive validity of the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) scores on early academic success in nursing programs across pre-pandemic, during-pandemic, and post-pandemic periods.
methodsData for more than 100 000 students who took both TEAS and Content Mastery Series Fundamentals assessments were evaluated using correlation and regression analyses.
resultsAll TEAS content area scores significantly predicted early academic success with Reading and Science being the strongest predictors. Slightly weaker predictive relations were observed across all areas during the pandemic. These relationships improved in the post-pandemic period.
conclusionsThe findings support the inclusion of standardized tests in evidence-based admission criteria despite the impact of COVID-19 on students' learning and assessment during the pandemic period.
