Strengths-Based Leadership for Internationally Educated Nurses: A National Appreciative Inquiry Initiative.
Article in Nurse leader, 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
Internationally educated nurses (IENs) are essential in filling global nursing shortages. Nevertheless, challenges they face during their transition, onboarding, and adaptation to new settings can impact their retention, workforce stability, and the quality of patient care. Existing strategies often concentrate more on identifying gaps than leveraging their strengths. This initiative engaged stakeholders through a participatory design approach that integrated Appreciative Inquiry and the Nominal Group Technique to identify and prioritize strategies for integrating IENs. Data were collected at 2 meetings of the Philippine Nurses' Association of America, attended by 542 participants, through structured discussions, polling, and consensus-building activities. Participants identified essential components facilitating IEN integration, which include mentorship, culturally responsive onboarding, psychosocial and family support, and inclusive organizational practices. Structured onboarding and mentorship emerged asforemost strategies, succeeded by professional development and community engagement. Integrating Appreciative Inquiry with structured prioritization provides a practical, stakeholder-driven method to guide workforce integration initiatives. The findings underscore the significance of strengths-based, system-level strategies that foster belonging, facilitate professional development, and improve IEN retention.
