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

Background: Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) have become essential tools in modern healthcare, enhancing efficiency, safety, and quality of care. However, multiple factors influence nurses' satisfaction with EMR use. Aim: To assess nurses' work satisfaction with EMR use and identify associated facilitators and barriers among nurses in Palestinian governmental hospitals. Methods: A cross-sectional quantitative design was employed. A convenience sample of 190 nurses from medical and surgical wards was recruited. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire covering demographics, work environment variables, and an adapted version of the Nursing Work Satisfaction Questionnaire (NWSQ). Sample size was determined using G*Power software. Data were analyzed using SPSS. Results: Among 190 nurses, 51.1% were aged 20-30 years, with nearly equal gender distribution. Most (63.1%) had received EMR training, and 53.2% perceived the system as user-friendly. 52.1% were satisfied with their work using EMRs. Regression analysis demonstrated that ease of system use (β = 0.274, Conclusion: Nurses in Palestinian governmental hospitals reported moderate satisfaction with EMR use. Factors such as training, system usability, technical support, and age significantly contributed to satisfaction. Strengthening these areas may enhance the integration and effectiveness of EMRs in nursing practice.
