Impact of organizational climate on the execution of infection prevention and control among Chinese medical staff: a multi-center cross-sectional explorative online survey.
Article in BMC public health, 2026. 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
backgroundResearch on infection prevention and control (IPC) execution among medical staff after the full resumption of routine medical services remains limited. Organizational IPC climate is a crucial factor influencing the awareness and behaviors of medical staff within healthcare institutions. This study aims to explore the associations between organizational IPC climate and IPC execution among Chinese medical staff, thereby offering new evidence for improving the performance of nosocomial infection management.
methodsA cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among 13,397 medical staff from 295 medical institutions in Hubei Province, China. The questionnaire was designed to measure IPC climate at both the hospital and department levels, as well as medical staff's self-reported IPC execution in terms of motivation, process, and outcomes. The structural equation model was applied to examine the relationships among the variables.
resultsAt the hospital level, IPC training and publicity were positively associated with self-reported (SR)-execution motivation (β = 0.518, P < 0.05), SR-execution process (β = 0.829, P < 0.05), and SR-execution outcomes (β = 0.495, P < 0.05), whereas the management model was negatively associated with SR-execution motivation (β = -0.543, P < 0.05), SR-execution process (β = -0.851, P < 0.05), and SR-execution outcomes (β = -0.575, P < 0.05). At the department level, IPC climate was negatively associated with SR-execution motivation (β = -0.037, P < 0.05), SR-execution process (β = -0.040, P < 0.05), and SR-execution outcomes (β = -0.090, P < 0.05).
conclusionMedical institutions could implement continuous, specific, and effective IPC training and various publicity strategies, while optimizing management models by improving systems and procedures, reducing unnecessary burdens, and refining incentive mechanisms. These measures may enhance organizational IPC climate and thus improve IPC execution among medical staff.
