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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveGiven the multicultural and multiethnic environment in Iran, as well as the growth of medical tourism, the development of culturally congruent care is a key necessity for enhancing the quality and safety of nursing care. This study aims to investigate the relationship between cultural intelligence and cultural competence among students in nursing faculties. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 378 students in nursing faculties from the Jovein and Tabas Nursing Faculties, who were selected through stratified sampling. Data were collected via standardized questionnaires for cultural intelligence and the Critical Cultural Competence Scale (CCCS). Data analysis was performed via descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis with SPSS software version 23.
findingsThe participants were nearly equally distributed in terms of sex (54.2% female) and were mostly single (91.8%). The overall mean cultural intelligence score of the participants was 101.66 ± 14.40, and the mean cultural competence score was 100.38 ± 10.89. According to the results of multiple regression analysis, a significant relationship was observed between the cultural intelligence and cultural competence of the students (β = 0.524, p < 0.001). DISCUSSION AND
conclusionBased on the findings of this study, which highlight the relationship between cultural intelligence and cultural competence among students in nursing faculties, it seems necessary to focus on enhancing cultural intelligence as a means to improve the cultural competence of nursing students. This, in turn, is crucial for improving the quality of healthcare services.
