Developing and Validating the Caring Stress Management Scale for Nurses: A Comprehensive Protocol Study.
Article in SAGE open nursing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: To date, most research on nursing stress has addressed the full range of stressors in work environments. Caring stress can be viewed as a specific dimension of occupational stress, focusing on the psychological and physiological strain arising directly from patient care, rather than broader organizational or administrative factors. Objectives: This study aims to explore the general dimensions of caring stress among nurses, focusing on the experiences of nurses working in healthcare facilities interacting with patients. Methods: This study employs an exploratory sequential mixed-methods design. In the qualitative phase, interviews and conventional content analysis will gather insights on caring stress and management among nurses, which will inform the development of a preliminary scale. The quantitative phase involves psychometric testing of the scale, including face and content validity assessments, and exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to confirm construct validity. Reliability will be measured using internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha) and test-retest methods. Responsiveness and interpretability will also be evaluated to ensure the scale's sensitivity to changes over time. Discussion: By incorporating cultural and workplace factors specific to Iranian nurses, the scale offers a contextually relevant measure of caring-related stress and management strategies. Comprehensive validity and reliability assessments demonstrate the scale's potential as a robust instrument for guiding effective interventions and future research in occupational health among nurses. Conclusion: The development and psychometric evaluation of the Caring Stress Management Scale provides a significant step forward for understanding the specific stressors faced by nurses in caring roles.
