Evaluation of nursing instructors' readiness for blended teaching from the perspectives of instructors and students: a cross-sectional survey.
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
backgroundBlended teaching is becoming the new normal of future education, and the sudden epidemic has accelerated this process. Instructors' readiness for blended teaching has an important impact on the effectiveness of blended teaching and learning. This study aims to investigate nursing instructors' readiness for blended teaching from the perspectives of instructors and students, providing implications and suggestions for blended teaching.
methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted among 70 nursing instructors and 414 nursing students from Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Data were collected using the translated Chinese version of the Blended Teaching Readiness Instrument. Descriptive statistics, group comparison tests, effect sizes, confirmatory factor analysis, and multiple linear regression were used for data analysis. Data were collected from March 2025 to May 2025.
resultsThe statistical analysis (IBM SPSS 28) reported that the nursing instructors were ready for blended teaching, supported by nursing students' evaluations. In addition, in the dimensions of dispositions (4.52 vs. 4.74), online integration (4.50 vs. 4.68), and data practices (4.63 vs. 4.83), students' evaluation is lower than the instructors' self-evaluation; whereas students' evaluation is higher than the instructors' evaluation in the dimension of online interaction (4.68 vs. 4.27).
conclusionsThis study indicated that nursing teachers were ready for blended teaching from both the students' and instructors' perspectives. However, there is room for improvement in terms of nursing instructors' dispositions, online integration, and data practices from the perspective of students. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
