Assessment of nursing staff attitude regarding prevention of cervical cancer.

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
backgroundCervical cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer among women worldwide, while in Egypt, it is considered the 14th major contributor to female tumors. AIM OF THE STUDY: To assess nursing staff attitude regarding prevention of cervical cancer.
methodsA descriptive cross-sectional study framework was executed in Mansoura University Hospital and six other buildings (psychiatry, burns, outpatient, special medicine, convalescence and radiation building), Mansoura city, Egypt, among 414 nursing staff who were chosen by using the convenience sampling technique. A structured interview questionnaire consisting of two parts was used to gather data from June 2024 and continued until the end of November 2024. Univariate analysis for descriptive data and bivariate analysis through the chi-square test were performed.
resultsThe current research revealed that 76.3% of the studied nursing staff had a positive attitude toward the prevention of cervical cancer, while 69.3% of them agreed that cervical neoplasm is a highly preventable disease, and 71.7% of them agreed that cervical neoplasm is curable if detected early. Also, there was a statistically significant positive association between educational level and attitude (p < 0.001) and a statistically significant positive association between marital status and attitude (p < 0.031). Also, there was a statistically significant positive association between vaccination against HPV and positive attitude (p < 0.001), while there was a statistically significant positive association between positive attitude and cervical cancer screening (p < 0.012).
conclusionIt is concluded that more than three-quarters of nursing staff demonstrated a positive attitude toward cervical cancer prevention, underscoring the need for continued educational interventions. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: This study was not registered as a clinical trial as it does not involve an interventional design.
