Current state of training needs and programs for infection control liaison nurses.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 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
Amid the continuous advancement of medical technologies and increasingly stringent requirements for hospital infection management, the infection control liaison nurse serves as a critical bridge between the infection control department and clinical units. The professional competence and training quality of these nurses directly influence the effectiveness of infection prevention and control measures within hospitals. At present, there is a significant variation in the job competency, mastery of professional knowledge, and application of practical skills among infection control liaison nurses, leading to diversified training needs. The design and implementation of training programs face challenges such as incomplete systems, uniformity in training models, and non-standardized criteria for outcome evaluation. An analysis of the current training landscape reveals significant gaps in the integration of theory and practice, a lack of pertinence in training content, and the absence of a robust mechanism for continuous education. There is an urgent need to develop a more scientific, systematic, and effective training model to enhance the overall quality and professional level of infection control liaison nurses.
