1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Although the metaverse is still in its early exploratory stage in the field of nursing, it is gradually demonstrating its potential in digital health and telemedicine care, transforming the traditional nurse-patient interaction model through digital tools and the internet. The "metaverse" represents the merging of two worlds into an immersive, online, virtual, connected environment in which participants actively engage with 3D content and interact using digital avatars. The metaverse entails many possibilities and challenges in attempts to introduce new methods of nursing. This technology has many applications, particularly with respect to assisting in surgery, enhancing chronic disease management, reshaping nursing education, promoting telemedicine, and facilitating psychological interventions. While obstacles may be encountered in various areas, such as trust and security, technology, legislation and regulation, the use of non-fungible tokens as a secure asset for patient data is a potential solution to these issues.
