The Spiritual Care Competence of Intensive Care Unit Nurses.
Article in SAGE open nursing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Intensive Care Unit (ICU) nurses experience high psychological stress, which can compromise patient care. Spirituality is recognized as a coping mechanism and a critical component of holistic care. Jean Watson's Transpersonal Human Caring Theory posits that nurses' spiritual perception influences their provision of spiritual care, which is the highest quality of care a patient can receive. Purpose: To describe ICU nurses' spiritual care competence (SCC), its associations, and factors. Methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive correlational study of ICU registered nurses was conducted. Measurement instruments used were the Spirituality and Spiritual Care Rating Scale (SSCRS) and the Enhancing Provision of Spiritual Care through Innovative Education and Compassionate Care (EPICC) Self-Assessment Tool. Descriptive statistics, Spearman correlations, and linear regression analysis were conducted. Results: Mean spiritual care competency score = 114.03 (SD = 14.42). Strong positive associations were found between spiritual care competence and perception of spirituality, spiritual care practice, and personalized care. A weak negative association was also found between competency and religiosity. Regression analysis identified perceptions of spirituality, spiritual care practice, personalized care, and religiosity as predictors of spiritual care competency (R Conclusion: ICU nurses' spiritual care competence was associated with perceptions of spirituality, spiritual care practice, personalized care, and religiosity. Emphasizing personalized care, clarifying the distinction between spirituality and religiosity, and providing targeted spirituality education may enhance SCC and SCP, thereby supporting nurse well-being and patient-centered outcomes.
