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

This study investigates the impact of night shift rotations on nursing performance and medication errors, and examines the mediating role of patient safety and quality of work. A cross-sectional design was used, targeting 350 nurses from a selected hospital in Jordan. The required sample size of 184 participants was calculated using an online sample size calculator. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics to explore the relationships between night shift rotations, nursing performance, medication errors, and patient safety quality. The results showed that night shift rotations significantly affected both nursing performance and medication errors. Additionally, patient safety and quality of work were found to mediate these relationships, indicating that higher levels of patient safety and quality of work can strengthen nursing performance and help mitigate medication errors. The results showed that night shift rotations significantly affected both nursing performance and medication errors. Additionally, patient safety and quality of work were found to mediate these relationships, indicating that higher levels of patient safety and quality of work can strengthen nursing performance and help mitigate medication errors.
