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

backgroundDigital escape rooms have been developed during the pandemic, which improves students' cooperation, communication skills, and critical thinking skills, effects on learning in nursing education.

methodThis study aimed to evaluate the GestDia escape room to assess students' motivation and self-confidence in learning. A descriptive quantitative interventional study was carried out. The study population was nursing students in their third semester (n = 45). The students filled out the Instructional Materials Motivation Survey and Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale.

resultsThe mean scores obtained from motivation, satisfaction, and self-confidence scales were generally higher. Males scored higher on all scales than females, though these differences were not statistically significant (p > 0.05).

conclusionIn general, although games increase students' motivation, satisfaction, and self-confidence, they can lead to gender differences. In the digital world, integrating escape rooms into nursing education can add joy to students' learning process.
