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
objectiveTo explore the barriers faced by early-career nurses in practicing narrative nursing, covering individual competence, patient cooperation, institutional support, and sociocultural factors, aiming to provide theoretical and practical references for enhancing nurses' humanistic care ability, optimizing nurse-patient relationships, and improving care quality.
methodsA phenomenological qualitative study was conducted using purposive sampling to select seven early-career nurses from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between March and June 2024. Semi-structured face-to-face interviews were performed, and data were analyzed using Colaizzi's seven-step method to extract themes.
resultsFour major themes and ten subthemes were identified: (1) weak narrative competence among early-career nurses, manifested as the gap between theory and practice, insufficient communication in complex situations, and difficulty in emotional regulation; (2) limited patient understanding and cooperation, including communication barriers and lack of trust; (3) constrained objective conditions, such as high workload, lack of training, and insufficient humanistic atmosphere; (4) sociocultural factors affecting narrative nursing implementation, including imbalance between treatment and humanistic needs and reduced nurse-patient interaction willingness due to negative events.
conclusionInsufficient narrative competence of early-career nurses and low patient cooperation are the main obstacles to promoting narrative nursing. Targeted training, improving patient awareness, strengthening institutional support, and fostering a positive humanistic environment can effectively enhance nurses' humanistic care abilities and optimize nurse-patient relationships. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
