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
introductionNurses are the first line of healthcare professionals who provide ongoing care to donors and their families. The intention of nurses to sign the organ donor card and the factors affecting it are important in the field of organ donation. The aim of the present study was to predictors of intention to sign an organ donor card among clinical nurses based on the expanded organ donation model. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted among 264 nurses from five educational and therapeutic centers in Hamadan, in 2023. Participants were recruited by convenience sampling method and surveyed on being a donor and their perceptions about signing the donor card. Data were collected using a valid and reliable self-administered questionnaire. The Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression were used to assess the relationship between variables. SPSS software version 26 was used for data analysis. The significance level was considered to be p < 0.05.
resultsThe mean (SD) age of participants was 35.6 (7.8). The predictors of behavioral intention to sign organ donor card were perceived control (β = 0.245, p < 0.001), anticipated regret (β = 0.226, p < 0.001), descriptive norms (β = 0.205, p = 0.001), mass media sources (β = -0.195, p = 0.002), subjective norms (β = 0.156, p = 0.007), and knowledge (β = -0.140, p = 0.010). The EODM constructs were able to explain 41.2% of the variance in nurses' behavioral intention to receive an organ donation card.
conclusionThis study elucidates the complex interplay of factors influencing nurses' behavioral intentions to sign an organ donor card, providing critical insights that can inform future interventions and policy decisions. The findings highlight perceived control as the most important predictor, suggesting that increasing individuals' confidence in their ability to make informed decisions about organ donation could significantly increase participation rates.
