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

BackgroundSelf-compassion is an essential component of self-care. Recognizing it as a nursing diagnosis can promote interventions to address Inadequate Self-Compassion.AimThis study aims to clinically validate the new NANDA-I diagnosis (00325) Inadequate Self-Compassion.MethodologyA mixed-methods study was conducted, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. A descriptive, cross-sectional, and prospective study was planned. Participants: We used the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) to identify individuals with Inadequate Self-Compassion among nursing students. Subsequently, we conducted a group interview with these individuals, stratified by academic year of the nursing degree.ResultsThe group interview followed the structure of the new NANDA-I diagnosis, with diagnostic items serving as variables for analyzing qualitative data. The study revealed that nursing students commonly experience Inadequate Self-Compassion. Group interviews with participants who reported low self-compassion validated the diagnostic items of the new Inadequate Self-Compassion diagnosis.ConclusionThe study validates the new NANDA-I diagnosis of 00325 Inadequate Self-Compassion clinically.Implications for nursing practiceThe present study raises the level of diagnostic evidence from level 2.1. Conceptual validity to level 2.3.1a. Qualitative validity, increasing the strength of the evidence for diagnostic validity.
