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

Objectives: To explore patient rights outcomes in nurse-patient clinical interactions in the Yendi Hospital and promote patients' rights in Ghana using a proposed Caring Space Model. Design: An ethnographic research design was implemented, and purposive sampling was used to recruit participants. Data were gathered across nine inpatient units through in-depth individual interviews (n = 39), ethnographic participant observations (over 400 hours), and a focus group discussion from December 2021 to April 2022. A reflexive thematic analysis was conducted to explore participants' knowledge, experiences, and barriers to upholding patient rights in clinical interactions. Setting: The study was conducted in the Yendi Municipal Hospital. Participants: Included Nurses (n=11), patients (n=21), and caregivers (n=11) who were 18 years of age or older and provided voluntary consent. Additionally, nurses must have at least three years of experience in a hospital setting. Results: The study found that most patients and caregivers are unaware of the Ghanaian Conclusion: To promote patient-centred care, a model of the Caring Space has been developed to advance ethical nursing and caring practices that elevate patient rights in patient-provider clinical interactions.
