Nursing students' readiness and training needs for interprofessional education: A cross-sectional study in South Korea.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The significance of interprofessional education (IPE) in fostering interprofessional collaboration is being increasingly emphasized in healthcare. This study analyzed the training needs of nursing students based on the Interprofessional Education Collaborative Core Competencies using a descriptive, cross-sectional design. A structured survey of 108 fourth-year nursing students in Korea was conducted between June and July 2024. Data were analyzed with SPSS 27.0, using the Borich needs assessment model and importance-performance analysis (IPA). The analysis identified a critical need for focused educational intervention to enhance collaborative skills. Specifically, the results highlighted Teams and Teamwork and Roles and Responsibilities as priority areas for improvement, with a need for students to better define and differentiate roles, communicate with clarity and cultural humility, and advance team reasoning and shared leadership strategies. The findings indicate that the Core Competencies are not sufficiently integrated into nursing curricula to meet nursing students' training needs. Therefore, curriculum developers must prioritize focused programs that enhance nursing students' understanding of their roles, responsibilities, and cooperative strategies to effectively integrate IPE into nursing education and bridge these professional gaps. Convenience sampling and reliance on self-report data are acknowledged as limitations of this study.
