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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to examine the relationship between smartphone distraction and clinical decision-making among nurses.
methodsThis descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted with 140 nurses working in a state hospital in a provincial center in the Mediterranean region of Turkey between 12 and 31 December 2024. Data were collected using the "Descriptive Information Form," "Smartphone Distraction Scale," and "Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale."
resultsA statistically significant weak negative correlation was observed between Smartphone Distraction Scale and Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale scores (p<0.05). In addition, professional experience duration showed a weak positive relationship with Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale scores (p<0.001).
conclusionIn this study, higher levels of smartphone distraction were associated with lower levels of clinical decision-making among nurses. In addition, longer professional experience was associated with higher levels of clinical decision-making.
