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

objectivesto compare the effectiveness of highand medium-fidelity clinical simulation on nursing students' knowledge and clinical skills for pressure injury assessment and treatment.

methodsassessor-blinded randomized controlled trial. Thirty-two nursing students were assigned to an experimental group (n=17) or a control group (n=15). The intervention comprised a theoretical component and a simulation-high fidelity for the experimental group and medium fidelity for the control group. Data were collected with a sociodemographic questionnaire, a theoretical test, a skills checklist, and a Debriefing Assessment Scale. Statistical analysis included the chi-square test, the Mann-Whitney U test, ANOVA, and effect size, at a 5% significance level (α=0.05).

resultsboth groups showed significant improvement in theoretical knowledge (p<0.05). The groups did not differ significantly in skills (p=0.853). The debriefing experience was positive and similar in both groups.

conclusionssimulation improved knowledge and skills, with no differences by simulation fidelity level.
