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

backgroundEthics education is essential for nursing students to enhance their ethical decision-making skills. Training methods such as case-based learning (CBL) can improve nurses' moral reasoning and sensitivity. This experimental study aimed to compare the effectiveness of conventional lecture-based learning (LBL) and CBL in enhancing moral knowledge among nursing professionals. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe study was conducted with 80 nurses at Rajaie Cardiovascular Institute in 2023, who were randomly assigned to either a conventional LBL class or a CBL class where ethical cases were discussed. Before and after the classes, the nurses completed a multiple-choice exam to evaluate their moral knowledge. The results were then compared before and after the intervention in both groups. The normality of the data was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. To compare continuous parametric data, the independent

resultsThe mean overall post-class scores were significantly higher in the CBL group (

conclusionThe post-test scores of the CBL group showed a significant improvement compared to the LBL group, suggesting that the CBL method is effective in enhancing moral knowledge.
