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

backgroundClinical education helps learners achieve the desired clinical competency. By identifying the influential factors, education will be more effective. One of the necessary prerequisites is meta-competency. Therefore, to improve education, this study aims to describe the meta-competencies required for postgraduate psychiatric nursing students. MATERIALS AND

methodsA qualitative content analysis was conducted from November 2019 to August 2020 in the universities offering a postgraduate psychiatric nursing degree in Iran. Twenty-one participants were sampled purposefully, including postgraduate psychiatric nursing students and instructors, psychiatric nurses, psychologists, and psychiatrists with at least 2 years of experience working in psychiatric settings. It was performed to obtain data saturation. Data collected through individual semi-structured interviews were analyzed using conventional content analysis.

resultsMeta competency included three categories of "thinking and clinical reasoning skills", "dynamic learning", and "human and organizational management".

conclusionThe findings of this study revealed that psychiatric nurses' meta-competency concept was multidimensional. The findings of this study can be useful in educating and assessing psychiatric nursing students' meta-competency. Further studies are required on psychiatric nurses' meta-competency.
