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

backgroundAs a non-invasive and economically feasible treatment method, prone position ventilation is a significant adjunctive therapy for patients with moderate and severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) as well as those with severe pneumonia.

aimsThis study aimed to develop a Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Questionnaire Related to Prone Positioning among Intensive Care Unit Nurses (PPICUNs-KAP) and assess the validation of this questionnaire in ICU nurses.

methodsThe draft questionnaire was formed by literature reviews and 2 rounds of expert consultations. This questionnaire was used to survey 267 ICU nurses from three tertiary hospitals in western Hunan Province, China in August 2024. Content validity and construct validity were evaluated by content validity index (CVI), exploratory factor analysis, respectively. Reliability was tested by internal consistency and test-retest reliability.

resultsAfter the exploratory factor analysis, three items(knowledge, attitude and practice) were excluded. Finally, the newly developed questionnaire included 42 items. It consisted of three dimensions: Knowledge (20 items); Attitude (7 items), and Practice (15 items). The Cronbach's α and test-retest reliability of the questionnaire were 0.970 and 0.962, respectively.

conclusionsPPICUNs-KAP is valid and reliable, and it is recommended for use in clinical practice and research to assess knowledge, attitude and practice related to prone positioning among ICU nurses.
