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

backgroundA workplace civility climate is a critical factor in shaping healthy nursing work environments. It influences nurses' organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and intention to stay, yet evidence from many healthcare systems, including Egypt, remains limited.

aimThis study aimed to evaluate the workplace civility climate and its relationship with OCB and the intention to stay among nurses.

methodsA cross-sectional descriptive correlational design was employed with 136 nurses from a hospital in Ismailia Governorate, Egypt. Data were collected using the Perceived Workplace Civility Climate Scale, the OCB Scale, and McCain's Intent to Stay Scale.

resultsNurses reported moderate-to-high workplace civility, with the highest scores in the policies and procedures dimension. OCB also demonstrated a high overall level, particularly for altruism and courtesy. Intention to stay was moderate. Significant positive correlations were found between the total workplace civility climate and both OCB and the intention to stay.

conclusionA positive workplace civility climate was correlated with higher OCB and greater intention to stay among nurses. Strengthening policies, reinforcing civil communication, and enhancing leadership practices may support retention and foster supportive work environments.
