An Analysis and Evaluation of the Theory of Moral Reckoning.
Article in ANS. Advances in nursing science. 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
Nathaniel's theory of moral reckoning describes how nurses experience and respond to moral distress. While prior critiques have highlighted its strengths, they have not fully engaged its limitations or potential for further development. This article applies an intersectional framework, centering racism and gender while recognizing other axes of identity remain underexplored, and uses Fawcett and DeSanto-Madeya's (2013) criteria for semantic, structural, and philosophical analysis. Strengths include empirical grounding and attention to power dynamics. However, assumptions of a universal "state of ease" and isolated morally distressing events restrict applicability. Reformulation incorporating these insights may enhance the theory's conceptual clarity and practical utility.
