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

backgroundPublic health emergencies place substantial pressure on healthcare systems and highlight the critical role of nursing teams in maintaining service continuity. Although resilience has frequently been examined at the individual level, instruments assessing resilience at the nursing team level remain limited. This study aimed to translate the Nurse Team Resilience Scale (NTRS) into Turkish and evaluate its psychometric properties among nurses working in primary healthcare settings.

methodsThis methodological study was conducted with 218 nurses working in family health centers and community health centers between November 2025 and January 2026. The psychometric evaluation was guided by COSMIN methodological standards. The cross-cultural adaptation process included forward-backward translation, expert review, and pilot testing. Content validity was assessed using the content validity index. Construct validity was evaluated using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Reliability was examined through internal consistency, split-half reliability, and test-retest analysis.

resultsContent validity findings supported the cultural and conceptual appropriateness of the Turkish version, with I-CVI and S-CVI/Ave values of 1.00. EFA supported a single-factor structure explaining 72.685% of the total variance. CFA indicated acceptable to good model fit. The scale demonstrated high internal consistency, strong split-half reliability, and strong test-retest reliability, supporting short-term temporal stability.

conclusionsThe Turkish version of the NTRS demonstrated strong psychometric evidence supporting its validity and reliability for assessing nursing team resilience in public health emergency contexts. The scale may be used in research and practice to evaluate and strengthen team resilience among nurses. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
