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

backgroundWith the continuous advancement of technology, it is predicted that artificial intelligence technologies will be utilised more by academicians and students in nursing education. There are no studies examining the awareness and concerns of artificial intelligence and robot nurses.

objectiveThis study was conducted to determine the effect of the training provided to increase nursing students' awareness of artificial intelligence and robot nurses on the anxiety of students towards artificial intelligence.

designIt is a pre-test post-test quasi-experimental type study in line with STROBE instructions.

participantsThe study was conducted with 282 nursing students between 15 December 2022 and 15 October 2023.

methodsIntroductory Information Form, 'Artificial Intelligence Knowledge Test (AIK)', and 'Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale (AIAS)' were employed to collect the data of the study. The data obtained in the study were analysed through SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) for Windows 25.0 software.

resultsThe nursing students were female (68.8%), and 83.7% of them had heard of concepts of artificial intelligence and robot nurses. The mean knowledge score of the students before the training on artificial intelligence and robot nurses was 63.08 ± 9.96, the mean knowledge score after the training was 66.70 ± 9.85 and a significant difference was detected between the mean knowledge scores (p < 0.05). The mean score of the AIAS scale was 4586 ± 11.18 before the training, 4810 ± 11.59 after the training and a significant difference was detected between the mean scores (p < 0.05).

conclusionThis study revealed that, as a result of the training provided for artificial intelligence and robot nurses, students' knowledge levels and their anxiety towards artificial intelligence increased. The results may guide the inclusion of artificial intelligence in the curriculum of nursing education for artificial intelligence and robot nurses.
