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

Background: The association between nurses' innovative behaviors and nursing competence has been demonstrated. However, the role of knowledge-sharing practices has been overlooked. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the moderating role of knowledge sharing behavior between innovative behavior and nursing competency among clinical nurses. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 258 clinical nurses from three tertiary hospitals in Nanjing and Wuxi were selected using convenience sampling approach. The scales used included the Nurse Innovative Behavior Scale, Knowledge Sharing Behavior Scale, and Nursing Competence. Results: The scores for innovative behavior, nursing competency, and knowledge sharing behavior were (39.19 ± 5.98), (84.62 ± 10.61), and (41.91 ± 11.62), respectively. A positive correlation was observed between innovative behavior and nursing competency ( Conclusion: Knowledge sharing behavior positively moderates the predictive association between innovative behavior and nursing competency. A supportive knowledge-sharing system should be a focus for nursing managers to facilitate the effective integration of innovative behavior into nursing proficiency.
