Exploring the experiences and perceptions of nursing students in utilizing artificial intelligence: a descriptive phenomenological study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundArtificial intelligence is transforming healthcare by enhancing diagnostics, efficiency, and outcomes. Evaluating nursing students' knowledge helps identify educational gaps, as they directly engage in patient care and decision-making. This study explored their experiences with using artificial intelligence in clinical settings.
methodsA descriptive phenomenological approach was employed to recruit eight nursing students from the School of Nursing and Midwifery in Kermanshah-Iran, all of whom had prior experience with artificial intelligence applications in clinical settings. Participants were selected purposefully and underwent in-depth, semi-structured interviews. Eight interview sessions lasting 60-70 min each were conducted, with data saturation achieved after the eighth interview. The data were analyzed using Colaizzi's seven-step method, ensuring adherence to Guba and Lincoln's criteria for trustworthiness throughout the research process. Data management was facilitated using MAXQDA 20 software.
resultsData analysis yielded 450 initial codes, 5 sub-themes, and 4 themes. The themes identified were: (1) Novel Potentials and Broad Horizons of Artificial Intelligence, (2) Ethical and Security Challenges In The World of Artificial Intelligence, (3) Changes in Human Identity and Social Relationships In The Age of Artificial Intelligence, and (4) Enhancing and Reinventing Skills for Coexistence With Artificial Intelligence.
conclusionThe study revealed that nursing students recognize the potential of artificial intelligence to enhance precision and efficiency in patient care. However, they emphasized the need for further education and the removal of barriers to its effective implementation. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
