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

aimsThis study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Regret Intensity Scale, which assesses the regret experienced by nurses during the care process.

methodsThis methodological study was conducted with 402 nurses. Data were collected using the Nurse Information Form, Regret Intensity Scale and Elements of Regret Scale. Language and content validity were assessed using the Content Validity Index. Construct validity was examined through exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, item-total score correlation, and Pearson correlation coefficient were used to assess reliability.

resultsExploratory factor analysis (n = 193) showed a KMO value of 0.890 and a Bartlett’s test value of 1466.942 (p < 0.001). Factor loadings of the single-factor structure ranged from 0.737 to 0.865. Confirmatory factor analysis (n = 209) indicated good model fit (χ2/df = 2.338, RMSEA = 0.079, GFI = 0.95). The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.932 and all items ranged from 0.927 to 0.934. A statistically significant correlation was found with the Elements of Regret Scale (r = 0.490; p < 0.001).

conclusionThe Turkish version of the Regret Intensity Scale is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring the regret experienced by nurses in care processes. It is a practical tool for use in clinical practice and research to assess care-related regret in Turkish-speaking healthcare professionals.
