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

Introduction: The commitment of nurses to their profession involves belief in professional values, commitment to its goals, willingness to exert effort, commitment to stay in the profession and handle its challenges. Lack of commitment hinders goal achievement and fosters indifference, leading to poor performance, turnover, and dissatisfaction. However, evidence on professional commitment and its associated factors among nurses in Ethiopia, especially in the study area, is limited. Objective: The first objective was to determine the level of professional commitment, and the second was to identify its determinants among nurses in East Gojjam Zone, Northwest Ethiopia. Method: A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted in 391 nurses using a simple random sample technique from November 1 to November 30, 2024. Data were collected using a self-administered structured questionnaire. After verifying its completeness, the data were entered and cleaned using EpiData version 4.2, and then exported to Statistical Package for Social Science version 27 for statistical analysis. Simple and multivariable linear regression analyses were conducted using a 95% confidence interval (CI) to identify predictors. A Results: In this study, a total of 381 individuals returned and completed the questionnaire, yielding a response rate of 97.4%. The mean score of professional commitment of nurses was 33.47 ± 6.10 (95% CI [32.86, 34.08]). Perceived promotional opportunity (β = 0.655; [0.213-1.097]), affective organizational commitment (β = 0.299; [0.208-0.389]), work-life balance (β = 0.125; [0.049-0.201]), and normative organizational commitment (β = 0.359; [0.186-0.532]) were significant predictors of professional commitment. Conclusion: This study revealed that the level of professional commitment of nurses was medium. Perceived promotional opportunity, affective organizational commitment, work-life balance, and normative organizational commitment were significant predictors of professional commitment. Therefore, providing better promotion opportunities, enhancing normative commitment, and enhancing work-life balance could increase nurses' commitment.
