Article in Journal of nursing management, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: As the baby boomer generation retires, millennials increasingly assume leadership roles in hospital organizations, including as nursing unit managers. Millennials are recognized for their focus on personal growth, digital skills, and flexible work preferences; however, they face unique challenges in managing healthcare teams. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the challenges millennial nurse unit managers face in unit operations and the strategies they use to overcome them. Methods: This qualitative study recruited 19 women participants, aged 36-43, from tertiary and general hospitals in Seoul, South Korea. Data were collected from 19 participants using semistructured interviews. Results: Content analysis identified four themes that nurse unit managers adopt to overcome their challenges: innovation in intergenerational communication, identification as a leader, adaptation to technological changes, and management of work-life integration. Conclusion: This study's findings provide valuable insights into millennial nursing unit managers' roles, leadership approaches, and necessary competencies. Based on the findings, strategies to enhance their competencies are suggested. Implications for Nursing Management: Nursing management should implement tailored training programs and organizational strategies to empower millennial nurse unit managers, thereby enhancing leadership effectiveness, workforce engagement, and healthcare quality and settings.
