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

Active learning and professional citizenship are widely discussed in nursing education, yet the conditions under which they converge have not been theoretically specified. In this paper, we advance a structural account of that relation, drawing on deliberative theory, philosophy of education, and nursing scholarship. The relation we describe is one of shared enabling conditions rather than causal production: active learning and professional citizenship converge not because one produces the other, but because each depends on arrangements that require public justification through reasons, engagement with competing claims, and answerability for the consequences of action. We trace a conceptual movement from professional accountability to professional citizenship, and from participatory learning to deliberative practice, specifying a set of conditions that can be instantiated in nursing education but have rarely been theorised as the basis of this relation. In doing so, we give theoretical form to a relation more often enacted than articulated.
