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
introductionThe ToxBH-NM scale, which assesses toxic leadership behaviors in nurse managers, is a questionnaire specifically developed for this purpose. The necessity for further research to identify and evaluate toxic leadership styles in Iranian contexts underscores the significance of possessing a valid and reliable measurement questionnaire in Persian. This study aims to assess the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the ToxBH-NM among Iranian nurses.
methodsA methodological study was conducted in 2024 with a sample of 359 nurses, selected through convenience sampling from various hospitals in Hamadan city. After translating the questionnaire, construct validity was evaluated in two phases. The first phase involved exploratory factor analysis, while the second phase applied confirmatory factor analysis. In addition, reliability was assessed by measuring the internal consistency of the questionnaire using statistical tests such as Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's Omega.
resultsExploratory factor analysis identified a structure with 25 items across three factors, accounting for 67.6% of the total variance. Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated an adequate model fit, and subsequent statistical tests confirmed the reliability of the questionnaire as acceptable.
conclusionThe study findings indicate that the Toxic Leadership Behaviors Questionnaire demonstrates satisfactory validity and reliability, supporting its suitability as a questionnaire for assessing toxic leadership behaviors among nursing managers in Iran.
