Innovation by Design: Closing the Human-centered Design Skills Gap Among Front-line Nurses.
Article in The Journal of nursing administration, 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
objectiveTo evaluate the impact of an 8-hour human-centered design (HCD) workshop on nurses' and other clinicians' creative self-efficacy (CSE), psychological empowerment (PE), and traits of design thinkers (TDT).
backgroundDespite nurses' routine problem-solving, formal training in HCD is lacking. Integrating HCD can foster intrapreneurship and innovation within healthcare systems.
methodsA mixed-methods, 1-group quasi-experimental study was conducted at a Midwestern university's Entrepreneurship Center with VA Healthcare System nurses and clinicians. Participants completed pre-workshop and post-workshop surveys measuring CSE, PE, and TDT, and qualitative reflections.
resultsAmong 27 participants, statistically significant improvements were observed in CSE (d=1.23), PE (d=0.43), and TDT (d=0.65). Qualitative themes highlighted collaboration, experiential learning, and a desire for continued innovation support.
conclusionsHCD workshop enhanced nurses' innovation competencies and empowered them to lead system improvements. Strategic partnerships with universities can address educational gaps and foster a culture of intrapreneurship in healthcare.
