Supporting Autonomy in ADL Care. How Nursing Students Learn in Theory Classes: A Qualitative Multi-Perspective Study.

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
aimThis qualitative study examined how autonomy and autonomy support are addressed in the theoretical part of Dutch nursing education.
backgroundSupporting clients' autonomy in activities of daily living is essential for dignity and quality of life, but remains complex and often suboptimal due to contextual factors such as care settings, nurse-client relationships, and systemic pressures. Nurses must balance professional skills with sensitivity to clients' values. Little is known about how nursing students are prepared to support autonomy.
methodA document analysis of curricula and teaching materials was combined with interviews with 10 nursing students and 10 nurse educators.
resultsFindings show that autonomy is rarely mentioned in educational documents and lacks clear guidance. Teachers rely on personal experience, leading to inconsistent understanding among students, who mainly learn about autonomy support during internships.
conclusionBoth students and teachers suggest updating teaching materials and integrating best practices to strengthen education on autonomy support.
