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

objectiveTo assess the prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) among Chinese female nurses and examine the association between IPV exposure, independent sociodemographic predictors, and work-family conflict.

methodsThis cross-sectional study surveyed 341 female nurses across five hospitals in China from August 14 to September 16, 2022. Validated instruments included the Chinese version of the Short Form Conflict Tactics Scale-2 (CTS2S) and the Work-Family Conflict Scale. Data were analysed using multivariate logistic regression to identify independent risk factors.

resultsThe overall prevalence of IPV was 42.82% (n = 146). Cold violence was the most frequent type (34.02%), followed by psychological violence (23.75%), injury (5.28%), sexual coercion (4.11%) and physical violence (3.24%). Multivariate logistic regression showed that higher work-to-family conflict, being aged 31 to 40 years, and dissatisfaction with salary were the predictors of IPV exposure (p < 0.05).

conclusionIPV is highly prevalent among Chinese female nurses and is influenced by multiple sociodemographic and work-related factors. Given the significant impact of IPV on both work and family functioning, greater attention and targeted interventions are needed to support nurses affected by IPV and to mitigate its broader occupational and personal consequences.
