Latent profile analysis of nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding pressure injury prevention: a multicenter large-sample study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to analyze latent profiles and characteristics of nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding pressure injury (PI) prevention, as well as influencing factors across distinct profiles.
methodsA convenience sampling method was employed to recruit nurses from hospitals at various tiers in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region between July and August 2024. Data were collected using a General Information Questionnaire and a Nurse PI-KAP Questionnaire. Latent profile analysis (LPA) identified distinct PI-KAP profiles, while univariate analysis and multinomial logistic regression determined profile-specific influencing factors.
resultsAmong 17,253 enrolled nurses, the total PI-KAP score was 63.44 ± 7.69. Three latent profiles emerged: low-level PI-KAP (12.82%), moderate-level PI-KAP (52.23%), and high-level PI-KAP (34.95%). Multinomial logistic regression revealed that hospital tier, years of experience, education level, professional title, gender, and attitudes toward PI training significantly influenced PI-KAP profiles (p < .05).
conclusionHeterogeneity exists in nurses' PI-KAP profiles, with a substantial proportion demonstrating suboptimal competency. Nursing administrators should establish hierarchical training systems tailored to PI-KAP characteristics. Capacity-building strategies include prioritizing training for core nurses, optimizing resource allocation, and establishing tiered hospital assistance mechanisms to enhance team-based PI prevention capabilities. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
