Self-Assessed Restorative Care Competence Among Nursing Professionals in Finland: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Western journal of nursing research, 2026. 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
backgroundRestorative care (RC) has emerged as a promising approach to meet the growing demand for older adults' social and health services by promoting empowerment, individualization, and functional ability. Self-assessment of RC competence can be a powerful tool for identifying the most important RC learning needs and developing the competence of nursing professionals.
objectiveThis study explored the levels and associated factors of nursing professionals' self-assessed RC competence for older adults in Northern Finland.
methodData for this descriptive cross-sectional study were collected between October and November 2023 from nursing professionals (
resultsTotal self-assessed RC competence was rated as good (mean approximately 3.4 on a 1-5 scale). Patterns were observed by age and years of experience. Younger and less experienced nursing professionals assessed themselves as more competent in certain competence subscales. Furthermore, differences were observed between types of work unit. Nursing professionals in rehabilitation units reported higher RC competence than those in home care.
conclusionYounger nursing professionals with less experience, employed in geriatric units in Northern Finland, assessed themselves as more competent in RC. RC competence should be strengthened through regular continuing education and development of RC models.
