Article in Journal of religion and health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Nurses carry out spiritual care based on ethical principles, and they must have spiritual sensitivity to meet spiritual care needs. Seen from this angle, it is important to determine nurse's spiritual sensitivity in order to meet patient's spiritual care needs, to increase patient-nurse communication and to adopt a holistic approach to care. For this reason, the aim of this study was to test the validity and reliability of the Turkish Nurse's Spiritual Sensitivity Scale. In the present study, a sample size of 207 nurses was reached in the data collection stage. The Turkish Nurse's Spiritual Sensitivity Scale (NSSS) is a Likert-type scale consisting of 20 items and a single factor. There are no reverse-scored statements on the scale. A score of zero shows no spiritual sensitivity, and four shows higher spiritual sensitivity. The minimum score on the scale is zero, and the maximum score is 80. It was seen in this study that the Nurse's Spiritual Sensitivity Scale is a valid and reliable measurement instrument for a Turkish sample. This scale can be used by professionals to determine the spiritual sensitivity of Turkish nurses.
