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

This commentary reflects critically on the study by Stenseth et al. regarding immersive virtual reality (IVR) use in nursing education. While students reported favorable impressions of IVR's usability and educational value, challenges remain concerning cognitive scaffolding, learner discomfort, and limited scenario diversity. Drawing on the Technology Acceptance Model and Experiential Learning Theory, this commentary highlights the need for pedagogical depth, structured facilitation, and authentic simulation design. It also calls for greater student involvement in IVR development and longitudinal assessment of its learning impact. For IVR to become a sustainable educational modality, it must transition from technological novelty to pedagogically sound practice that is inclusive, reflective, and clinically relevant.
