Exploring the strategies to enhance nurse competence in health education for disease prevention.
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 1 paper.
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
aimThis study was conducted to examine the competencies and strategies required by Burundian nurses to implement health education in prevention of diseases, and to explore nurses' attitudes to their role and their experiences in carrying out this role. Results will be used to develop interventions to increase nurses' competence in promoting community-based disease prevention intervention.
designDescriptive and cross-sectional study.
methodThis quantitative, cross-sectional study assessed health education competencies among nurses at Ndora Hospital. From April 16-30, 2024, 40 contracted nurses (80% response rate) completed a researcher-designed questionnaire covering essential skills, engagement, improvement strategies, best practices, challenges, benefits, and tools. Data were analyzed using SPSS v27, with ethical principles upheld.
resultsNurses require strong communication, teaching, and emotional intelligence skills for effective health education. Key barriers include workload and lack of time, while organizational support and training are major motivators. Continuous professional development, integrated nursing programs, and culturally sensitive, individualized approaches are crucial. Challenges include patient disengagement and resource limitations. Health education empowers patients, promotes prevention, and reduces healthcare costs, with printed materials and multimedia presentations being preferred resources. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
