Missed Nursing Care in Paediatric Surgical Settings in Türkiye: A Nationwide Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in International journal of nursing practice, 2026. 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
aimsThis study aimed to describe specific missed nursing care (MNC) practices among paediatric surgical unit nurses in Türkiye and to explore descriptive differences and bivariate associations according to nurses' demographic and work-related characteristics.
backgroundMNC adversely affects patient safety and care quality. Although widely studied in various clinical settings, evidence from paediatric surgical units, where care is complex and specialized, remains limited.
designA descriptive cross-sectional survey was conducted.
methodsData were collected from a nonprobability voluntary-response sample of 242 nurses working in paediatric surgical units between April and August 2024 using a structured questionnaire consisting of a demographic form and the adapted MISSCARE Survey. Participants were recruited through a professional association's social media network. Descriptive and exploratory bivariate statistical analyses were performed.
resultsMost frequently missed practices included promoting neurodevelopment (82.2%), nonpharmacological anxiety management (79%) and oral care (73.6%). Primary reported reasons for MNC were nurse shortages (42.1%) and increased patient load (40.5%). The primary reported reasons for MNC were nurse shortages (42.1%) and increased patient load (40.5%). Exploratory bivariate analyses showed statistically significant differences in MNC scores according to age, professional experience (p < 0.001), overtime work and job satisfaction (p < 0.05).
conclusionOrganizational challenges-chiefly staffing shortages, increased workload and communication gaps-were the most prominent reported reasons for MNC; targeted organizational interventions and confirmatory research using representative samples are warranted.
