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

aimTo identify latent profiles of holistic humanistic caring perception among newly graduated nurses, examine associated factors and assess indirect associations with clinical nursing competency through thriving at work.

backgroundHeterogeneity in caring perception and the role of thriving at work in clinical nursing competency remain unclear.

methodsA cross-sectional study included 421 newly graduated nurses from six tertiary hospitals. Latent profile analysis, multinomial logistic regression and covariate-adjusted mediation analysis with 5000 bootstrap samples were performed.

resultsThree profiles characterised mainly by low (30.9%), moderate (31.8%) and high (37.3%) caring perception were identified. Only-child status, living situation and work experience were associated with profile membership. Significant indirect associations through thriving at work were found for high versus low (B = 46.17, 95% bootstrap CI 36.73-55.58) and moderate versus low (B = 27.26, 95% bootstrap CI 21.30-33.45). The direct association remained significant for high versus low but not moderate versus low.

conclusionsCaring profiles were associated with clinical nursing competency, with significant indirect associations through thriving at work. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Profile-specific caring support and conditions that foster learning and vitality may help nursing managers support competency development.
