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

purposeThis study aims to explore nursing experts’ experiences of participating in research outpatient clinic, and their perceived challenges and support needs.

designA qualitative phenomenological descriptive study was carried out.

methodsA purposive sampling method was employed to conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews with 23 nursing experts engaged in nurse-led research outpatient clinics from May to June 2025. Thematic analysis guided by Colaizzi’s seven-step analysis method was adopted for data analysis. We followed the consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research (COREQ) checklist to report the study.

resultsThree themes were extracted: Motivation for participation in research outpatient clinics; Challenges for participation in research outpatient clinics; Perceived support needs. These themes collectively reflect nursing experts’ experiences, highlighting the factors that motivate their engagement, the obstacles they encounter, and the support they consider necessary for effective participation in research outpatient clinics.

conclusionUnder the nurse-led model, nursing experts’ experiences in research outpatient clinics reflect professional responsibility and personal development, while also confronting multiple practical challenges. Future research should focus on developing and evaluating targeted strategies to address the practical challenges identified by nursing experts and on optimizing support mechanisms within research outpatient settings. PATIENT AND PUBLIC CONTRIBUTIONS: We thank all participants for their valuable input throughout the study.
