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

aimTo Explore the Function and Mechanism of Professional Benefits on ICU Nurses' Stressors and Their Humanistic Practice Ability.

designA cross-sectional study was conducted.

methodsA total of 257 ICU nurses from nine tertiary and five secondary hospitals in Shanghai were recruited from December 2023 to January 2024 using convenience sampling. The study utilised a general data questionnaire, a humanistic practice ability scale, a nurse's work stressor scale, and a professional benefit scale for investigation and analysis.

resultsThe scores of ICU nurses' professional benefits, nurses' work stressors, and humanistic practice ability were 61.33 ± 22.21, 70.13 ± 15.70, and 105.96 ± 18.26. Nurse's work stressors were negatively correlated with humanistic practice ability and professional benefits; professional benefits were positively correlated with humanistic practice ability. Professional benefit played a mediating role between nurses' work stressors and humanistic practice ability.

conclusionsICU nurses' professional benefits were the mediating variable between stress and humanistic practice ability. ICU nursing managers should pay attention to optimising the working environment of ICU nurses to reduce work pressure, improve nurses' professional benefits, promote ICU nurses' humanistic quality and humanistic practice ability, and better meet the needs of severe patients. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION: We suggest that medical institutions and managers should implement targeted strategies to enhance nurses' perception of professional benefits and working environment to enhance their perception of career benefits. Therefore, it is essential to identify the current situation and relationship between ICU nurses' professional benefits, nurse's work stressors and humanistic practice ability. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient or public contribution.
