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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesNurses' professional competencies are critical in trauma patient care, and educational programs that strengthen these competencies contribute to improved patient safety and higher-quality care. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a virtual reality (VR)-based trauma nursing education program by applying Jeffries' simulation model and the 5E Learning Cycle.

methodsA quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control group pretest-post-test design was employed. Participants were 34 nurses with more than one year of clinical experience, recruited from three university hospitals in Daegu, Korea, each with over 800 beds. Participants were allocated to either the experimental group (

resultsThe experimental group demonstrated significant improvements in trauma-related knowledge and confidence in trauma care compared with the control group. Emergency nursing competency also increased significantly in both groups over time, but the degree of improvement did not differ between groups.

conclusionsThe VR-based trauma nursing education program, designed using Jeffries' simulation model and the 5E Learning Cycle, enhanced trauma-related knowledge and confidence among clinical nurses. Although no between-group difference was found for emergency nursing competency, the findings provide foundational evidence supporting the use of VR-based interventions to advance emergency and critical care nursing education.
