The double‑edged sword of calling: mediating nursing practice environment and missed care - a cross‑sectional study.

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
Aim and objectives: To investigate the status of missed nursing care and examine the mediating role of calling between nursing work environment and missed nursing care. Background: Missed nursing care (MNC) critically affects patient safety and care quality and is closely linked to the nursing work environment. However, the role of career calling-a key psychological resource for nurses-in this process remains unclear. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: We recruited 535 clinical nurses from a tertiary hospital in Nanjing, China, using convenience sampling. Participants completed the Nursing Work Environment Scale, Career Calling Scale, and the Missed Nursing Care Scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and the PROCESS macro in SPSS 26.0. Statistical significance was set at Results: The mean score for missed nursing care was 34.75 (S Conclusion: Career calling partially mediates the link between the nursing work environment and MNC: a poor environment strengthens calling, which in turn is linked to more MNC, revealing a paradoxical effect. Relevance to clinical practice: To reduce MNC, nurse managers should improve the practice environment-particularly nurse-physician collaboration and staffing-while fostering a balanced sense of career calling to prevent over-commitment, which is critical for patient safety and care quality. Patient or public contribution: No patient or public contribution was involved in this study, as the research focused on clinical nurses as the study population.
