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

backgroundThe leadership behaviours and practices of nurse managers play a pivotal role in shaping staff performance, retention, and the overall quality of patient care, making them critical components of healthcare system efficiency and outcomes. These behaviours and practices are attributed to different management strategies and leadership styles, which have a strong influence on how leaders act and make decisions.

aimThis study aims to assess the leadership behaviours and practices of nurse managers within Riyadh Second Health Cluster. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional quantitative study was conducted using the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI), a validated 30-item self-assessment tool. A total of 342 nurse managers working in Riyadh Second Health were recruited using convenience sampling. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, and ANOVA to examine differences across their demographics.

resultsSignificant differences were found in leadership behavior scores across gender, nationality, age, education, and experience, with female, non-Saudi, mid-career, and bachelor's-prepared nurse managers demonstrating higher self-reported leadership practices across all domains. Nurse managers exhibited very high leadership scores across all five domains of the leadership practices (average M = 4.57); Model the Way (M = 4.57), Inspire a Shared Vision (M = 4.56), Challenge the Process (M = 4.56), Enable Others to Act (M = 4.57), and Encourage the Heart (M = 4.57).

conclusionThe results indicated a very high level of all leadership practices among the nurse managers in Riyadh Second Health Cluster. The study findings highlight a strong leadership abilities among the nurse managers, emphasizing the need for continued investment in leadership training and development programs to enhance staff performance, retention, and quality of care.
