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

Background: Accurate citations are vital for academic integrity and evidence-based nursing scholarship. However, citation errors and low confidence in using reference management software are common among nursing students. Aim: To evaluate the effect of a video-based educational intervention on nursing students' practical skills and self-confidence in citation writing using EndNote. Methods: A one-group pretest-posttest research design was conducted among 250 nursing students in the West Bank, Palestine. Participants completed a structured EndNote practical skills checklist and a visual analog scale assessing confidence before and after viewing a 25-minute instructional video. Data were analyzed using the paired t-tests, independent t-tests, and one-way analysis of variance. Results: Practical skills scores improved significantly from 2.1 ± 1.8 to 8.3 ± 2.1 ( Conclusion: Video-based education produced large and meaningful gains in both citation proficiency and self-confidence, thereby confirming its pedagogical value in nursing education. Integrating structured multimedia training into curricula can enhance future nurses' research competence, digital fluency, and equitable learning outcomes.
