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

aimThis study aimed to adapt and validate the Creativity and Innovation Effectiveness Profile (CIEP) for Chinese nursing students, developing a culturally contextualized tool to systematically assess and enhance creativity in alignment with China's educational and cultural contexts.

backgroundGiven the rapid evolution of global healthcare driven by advances in technology, clinical practice, and patient care models, fostering innovation in nursing education has become imperative. While China has demonstrated a growing emphasis on cultivating nursing students' innovative capabilities, there remains a persistent lack of validated instruments specifically designed to evaluate these competencies within this population.

designA scale adaptation and validation study.

methodsThe cross-cultural adaptation process involved forward-backward translation, expert reviews (using the Delphi method with 15 experts), cognitive interviews (n = 30), and psychometric validation. Data from 531 nursing students from two universities were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).

resultsThe adapted scale was restructured into four dimensions-Creative Consciousness, Pattern Breaking Skills, Critical Thinking Ability, and Idea Nurturing Ability. Results demonstrated high internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.894), excellent test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.846), and strong construct validity (CFI = 0.925, RMSEA = 0.051). Composite reliability (0.862-0.911) and discriminant validity further confirmed the scale's psychometric rigor. Culturally sensitive modifications enhanced the scale's ecological validity.

conclusionThe validated 31-item CIEP provides a systematic tool for evaluating and fostering innovation competencies within Chinese nursing education, thereby supporting national priorities for multidisciplinary healthcare talent development. Future research should focus on longitudinal tracking of innovation capability development and establishing empirical correlations between scale-derived indicators and objective clinical innovation outcomes.
