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

In hospitals, the cost to replace 1 registered nurse (RN) can be quantified by considering costs in recruitment, hiring, and onboarding processes. Though the mean replacement cost of 1 RN will vary depending on geographic location and professional specialization, some have estimated this cost at $56 000. In addition to these direct costs, high turnover also contributes to broader organizational challenges, including disrupted communication, teamwork, and patient care. These challenges can contribute to adverse quality outcomes, such as increased inpatient falls. This article examines the organizational cost of RN turnover by analyzing its relationship to inpatient fall rates as an indicator of quality care.
