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
Background: Nurses in emergency departments (EDs) typically face time and resource constraints when they make clinical decisions. Furthermore, core self-evaluations, a fundamental, deep-seated personality trait, represent a key factor influencing work motivation, job performance, and other behavioral outcomes. However, the relationship remains unclear between ED nurses' core self-evaluations and their perceptions of clinical decision-making. Aim: This study aims to explore the impact of ED nurses' core self-evaluations on their perceptions of clinical decision-making. Design: A cross-sectional survey design was used. Methods: This cross-sectional study surveyed 578 registered ED nurses from 30 public hospitals in Beijing, China. Data were collected via online and on-site questionnaires, including sociodemographic characteristics, the Core Self-Evaluations Scale, and the Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale. Statistical analyses included independent samples Results: The ED nurses reported moderate levels of core self-evaluations (39.16 ± 6.38) and relatively high perceptions of clinical decision-making (150.12 ± 18.32). The statistically significant positive correlation was found between core self-evaluations and perceptions of clinical decision-making ( Conclusion: This study demonstrated that enhancing the core self-evaluations of ED nurses may improve clinical decision-making quality. Nursing managers should establish targeted incentive systems, provide relevant resource support, and encourage critical thinking and self-reflection during training. These measures can strengthen ED nurses' self-efficacy and value recognition, ultimately advancing decision-making competence and care quality.
