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

Objective: To comprehend the potential categories of operating room nurses based on their clinical decision-making capability for pressure injuries and to analyze the characteristics of nurses falling under the various categories. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted from June to August 2022 using convenient sampling, with 469 operating room nurses from 12 tertiary hospitals in Shanxi, Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Xinjiang, and Chongqing as the participants. The General Information Questionnaire, Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale, Chinese Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory, Pressure Injury Management Self-Efficacy Scale, and Transformational Leadership Questionnaire were used in the survey. Clinical decisions taken by nurses in case of pressure injuries were analyzed using profiles, and the influencing factors of different categories were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. Results: The clinical decision-making of operating room nurses for pressure injuries can be divided into 3 profile groups: poor clinical decision-making group (40.3%), moderate clinical decision-making group (26.0%), and good clinical decision-making group (33.7%). The influencing factors of clinical decision-making capability for pressure injuries in operating room nurses were critical thinking ability, self-efficacy, transformational leadership, and educational background (all Conclusion: We developed three clinical decision-making profiles of operating room nurses for pressure injuries. Nursing managers can implement targeted intervention strategies based on the characteristics of individual nurses to improve clinical decision-making.
