Exploring training transfer in neurosurgical specialty nurse education: a qualitative descriptive study.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 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
Objective: To explore the characteristics and influencing factors of training transfer among neurosurgical specialty nurses, and to provide empirical evidence for nursing educators, clinical managers, and training designers to develop optimization strategies. Methods: Purposive sampling recruited 32 participants (15 specialty nurses, 11 instructors, and 6 training managers) from 16 Chinese institutions. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, and data were analyzed using framework analysis. This study followed the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research. Results: Two overarching themes and eight subthemes were identified. Theme 1 described the practical manifestations of training transfer among neurosurgical specialty nurses, including effective transfer of basic perioperative care competencies, adaptive application of advanced competencies, and extension of training outcomes from individual care to specialty development. Theme 2 identified facilitators and barriers influencing training transfer, including individual motivation and professional identity, contextualized teaching, organizational empowerment, resource mismatch, and sustainability challenges after training. Conclusion: Training transfer among neurosurgical specialty nurses represents an adaptive reconstruction process shaped by individual readiness, educational design, organizational support, and specialty-specific clinical contexts. Effective transfer requires not only high-quality training but also appropriate role positioning, resource alignment, and sustained post-training support.
