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: To develop and psychometrically validate an instrument to assess the competencies (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) of nurses and nursing students regarding the effects of climate change on the health of older people. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study of questionnaire construction and validation developed in four phases: creation and elaboration of the initial items, content validation by an expert panel, pilot test, and psychometric validation. A tool was developed consisting of a knowledge questionnaire, a skills scale, and an attitude scale. Data were collected from a convenience sample of 708 individuals (210 nurses and 498 nursing students) between January and April 2024. Content validation was carried out by consulting a panel of 13 experts and a pilot test. Psychometric validation was carried out using Item Response Theory, specifically the Rasch model for the knowledge questionnaire and Andrich's rating scale model for the skills and attitude scales. The STROBE checklist for cross-sectional studies was followed. Results: Reliability for the set of items and for individuals was excellent (0.99 and 0.90, respectively). Item separation index was above 2 in all three parts of the instrument, although somewhat more limited for people. Internal consistency was acceptable in the knowledge questionnaire (11 items, Cronbach's Conclusion: Nursing Competencies Questionnaire on Older People's Environmental Health is a useful and reliable instrument for measuring knowledge, skills, and attitudes in nurses and nursing students.
