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

BackgroundOrganisational ethical climate is relevant to nursing practice and employee outcomes, but its association with nurses' work performance has received limited attention, particularly in relation to job crafting.ObjectiveTo examine the associations between organisational ethical climate, job crafting, and work performance among nurses in Türkiye, and to assess whether job crafting statistically mediated the association between ethical climate and work performance.MethodsThis descriptive cross-sectional study included 204 nurses from a university hospital in Türkiye. Data were collected between June and September 2024 using the Organisational Ethical Climate Scale, the Job Crafting Scale, and the Individual Work Performance Questionnaire. Analyses were performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 and the PROCESS macro v4.2.ResultsOrganisational ethical climate was positively correlated with job crafting (r = .359, p < .001) and work performance (r = .346, p < .001). Job crafting was also positively correlated with work performance (r = .503, p < .001). The indirect effect of ethical climate on work performance through job crafting was significant (ab = .096, 95% CI [.042, .176]). The direct effect remained significant (c' = .130, p = .004), indicating partial statistical mediation.ConclusionsA more positive ethical climate was associated with higher job crafting and better self-reported work performance. Job crafting statistically accounted for part of the association between ethical climate and work performance.
