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. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Aim: This study aimed to explore factors contributing to organizational silence, drawing upon the framework of the choice to remain silent by Milliken, Morrison, and Hewlin. Background: The promotion of open communication and the enabling of open discourse amongst nursing professionals are essential for the enhancement of health service quality and the assurance of patient safety. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted from August 14, 2023, to September 15, 2023. Data were collected from 170 rotating shift nurses at a tertiary hospital in South Korea. The hypotheses were tested using multiple regression and the PROCESS macro, Version 4.2, Model 4. Results: Leader-member exchange not only had a direct effect on organizational silence but also had a significant indirect effect mediated by workplace bullying ( Conclusion: Organizational silence is shaped by both individual characteristics and organizational conditions. Workplace bullying not only has a direct effect on organizational silence but also mediates the relationship between leader-member exchange and organizational silence. Implications for Nursing Management: Nurse managers should be sensitive to negative cultures such as bullying and actively promote leader-member and team-member exchange. When nurse managers actively maintain and support relationships with members, members are more likely to disclose issues and express their opinions.
