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

backgroundWith the increasing cultural diversity in healthcare settings, it is essential for healthcare providers to possess the three key characteristics of cultural capacity, self-efficacy, and humility in order to deliver optimal and culturally congruent care. The present study aimed to assess the relationship between cultural capacity, self-efficacy, and humility among healthcare providers.

methodThis cross-sectional study used a convenience sampling method to include 203 healthcare providers from comprehensive health centers and facilities affiliated with Kerman University of Medical Sciences in Kerman, southeastern Iran. Data were collected through a demographic information questionnaire, the Cultural Capacity Scale Arabic (CCS-A), the Cultural Self-Efficacy Scale (CSES), and the Foronda's Cultural Humility Scale.

resultsThe results indicated that healthcare providers exhibited a moderate level of cultural capacity (60.38 ± 19.12) and cultural self-efficacy (60.29 ± 19.39), and occasionally demonstrated cultural humility (60.22 ± 11.43). Furthermore, cultural capacity showed a direct and significant correlation with both self-efficacy and cultural humility (P < 0.001). Additionally, cultural humility exhibited a direct and significant correlation with cultural self-efficacy (P < 0.001). Academic degree (β = 0.13, p = 0.005), education outside of place of residence (β = 0.1, p = 0.02), attendance in cultural care training (β = 0.21, p = 0.01), self-efficacy (β = 0.56, p = 0.001), and cultural humility (β = 0.11, p = 0.001) were significant predictors of the cultural capacity.

conclusionThe results suggested that the cultural capacity, self-efficacy, and humility of healthcare providers were at a moderate level, and these variables were interrelated. Given that cultural capacity, competence, and humility are fundamental concepts in addressing ethnic and cultural diversity in societies, healthcare policymakers should strive to improve the levels of these important cultural attributes and develop strategies to enhance these qualities in healthcare providers.
