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

objectivesto understand, from a complex perspective, the meanings of fake news in health and nursing as uncovered by nursing professionals.

methodsqualitative research, whose theoretical and methodological frameworks were, respectively, Complexity Theory and Grounded Theory. Participants were 25 nursing professionals from a public hospital and a family clinic in Rio de Janeiro. Semi-structured interviews were conducted between November 2021 and October 2023.

resultsfor nursing professionals, fake news is a complex phenomenon that presents form, content, and intentionality capable of projecting specific dynamics of production, propagation, and consumption of this information. The modus operandi of fake news finds gaps in social media control and algorithmic dynamics that favor its negative impact, including on science as the authority of discourse. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: nursing professionals understand fake news as a phenomenon that transcends the duality between truth and falsehood, negatively impacting public health.
