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

objectivesto analyze the "Imbalanced Energy Field" (00273) nursing diagnosis content.

methodsa content validity study of a nursing diagnosis. Twelve judges assessed the relevance of the elements of the NANDA-I "Imbalanced Energy Field" nursing diagnosis and the clarity and precision of its conceptual and operational definitions. A Content Validity Index ≥0.80 was considered adequate.

resultsall definitions were analyzed by judges, in addition to the validity of the 22 defining characteristics and five related factors already existing in NANDA-I 2021-2023. The exclusion of seven defining characteristics and the modification of ten terms were suggested (Delphi Agreement Index ≥80%). Conceptual and operational definitions of these defining characteristics were constructed, validating them using a Content Validity Index ≥0.80.

conclusionsafter validity, 15 defining characteristics and five related factors were deemed relevant and the suggested changes were approved and published by NANDA-I 2024-2026.
