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
Integral nursing leadership, based on Wilber's Integral Framework, is vital for fostering positive work environments and aligning staff with organizational goals. This study assessed the status of integral nursing leadership and its association with job satisfaction and turnover intention among nurses in Ardabil, Iran. This cross-sectional correlational study was conducted from November 2024 to January 2025 with 450 nurses from five hospitals affiliated with Ardabil University of Medical Sciences. Data were collected using a demographic form, the Integral Nursing Leadership Scale (INLS), and single-item measures for job satisfaction and turnover intention. Analysis was performed in SPSS-26 using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and linear regression (p < 0.05). Job satisfaction showed a significant, strong negative correlation with turnover intention (r = -0.585, p < 0.01). The mean score for integral nursing leadership was 3.85 out of 6. Only 37.3% of nurses reported job satisfaction, while 62.7% were dissatisfied and intended to leave. Regression analysis indicated that integral nursing leadership was a significant positive predictor of job satisfaction (B = 0.253, p < 0.001) and a significant negative predictor of turnover intention (B = -0.193, p < 0.001). Higher levels of integral nursing leadership are associated with increased job satisfaction and reduced turnover intention among nurses. This highlights the importance of developing integral leadership qualities to improve workplace culture and retention. Future research should investigate longitudinal effects and develop targeted interventions based on these findings.
