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

Introduction: Medication safety competence is a critical factor in enhancing patient safety. Safe nursing care is also a fundamental component of nursing service quality and a key indicator in clinical governance and risk management programs. Objective: This survey-based study, conducted for the first time in Iran, aimed to determine medication safety competence and its relationship with safe nursing care among nurses. Methods: This cross-sectional study used questionnaires to collect data Results: Out of the 500 nurses who received the questionnaire link, 429 completed the questionnaire. The mean medication safety competence of the participants was 148.85 ± 19.21, indicating a moderate level. The mean safe nursing care score was 314.71 ± 36.82, indicating a desirable level. A significant direct relationship was observed between medication safety competence and safe nursing care. The role of medication safety competence and department type in predicting safe nursing care was confirmed. Working in the emergency department was negatively associated with safe nursing care compared to other departments. Conclusion: The participants' medication safety competence was at a moderate level, while their safe nursing care was at a desirable level. It is recommended that nursing managers develop plans to enhance medication safety competence, with a particular emphasis on the components of safe nursing care.
