Knowledge, attitude, and behavior regarding the implementation of shared decision-making among advanced practice nurses in Taiwan.
Article in BMC nursing, 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
backgroundResearch on shared decision-making (SDM) mainly focuses on physicians and patients, with less study on advanced practice nurses (APNs), who have expertise and participate in decision-making. Understanding APNs' SDM knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors could enhance patient outcomes, especially in Taiwan where patient involvement in medical decisions is limited. This study examined how SDM knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors influence SDM implementation among APNs in Taiwan.
methodsThis study aims to examine the factors influencing and the relationships among SDM knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) in Taiwan. This study employed a cross-sectional design and surveyed 112 Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) in Taiwan via an online survey. Data collected via a questionnaire on SDM knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors were analyzed for influencing factors. Descriptive statistics and univariate linear regression were used.
resultsAttitude was the primary predictor of SDM behavior, strongly linked to effort and the quality of implementation. Practical SDM experience also boosted APNs' effort in carrying out the process. This study identified gaps in APNs' risk communication knowledge, especially in understanding relative risk and natural frequency formats.
conclusionsSDM training should incorporate risk communication strategies, reflective learning, simulations, practice, and structured feedback to enhance APNs' understanding of SDM core concepts and promote consistent clinical application. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
trial registrationNot applicable. This study did not involve any health care intervention on human participants.
