Career commitment and sense of calling in nursing students: a longitudinal study.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Under China's one-child policy, the new generation of nursing students has gradually entered the workforce. Their career commitment, career self-efficacy, and sense of calling have undergone changes. It is necessary to assess the relationships and underlying mechanisms among these factors in order to stabilize the nursing workforce and cultivate high-quality clinical nursing professionals. Methods: A cross-lagged design was used, with a total of 693 nursing students participating in September and December 2022. The 27-item undergraduate career commitment scale, the Chinese version of career self-efficacy scale, and the brief calling scale were measured over time. Results: The relationships between career commitment, career self-efficacy, and sense of calling differed by only child and non-only child nursing undergraduates. Conclusion: It is important to introduce specific measures aimed at enhancing the quality of nursing education and implementing effective nursing management methods to ensure the stability of the nursing workforce.
