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
aimTo examine the experiences of nurses and academician nurses and develop a nursing theory that describes the processes of their perception of human dignity in their nursing care.
methodsA qualitative study guided by the constructivist grounded theory approach. Between May 2023 and February 2024, observations and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 nurses and nurse academics. Data were analysed using constructivist grounded theory with three-phase coding (open, focused, theoretical) and supplemented by situational analysis mapping to capture contextual factors in nursing care.
resultsFour theoretical codes were identified-definition of dignity, being dignified, dignity violation and dignified care-derived from 14 focused codes.
conclusionHuman dignity is a central principle of nursing care, shaping actions and outcomes. Integrating this model into nursing education and practice may enhance patient-centred care, strengthen professional identity and improve overall care quality. Future research should examine its impact on patient experiences and clinical outcomes.
