The effect of mobile health application training based on micro-learning method on the level of resilience and happiness among intensive care nurses: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in BMC psychiatry, 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
backgroundIncreasing the level of resilience and happiness of intensive care nurses can lead to an improvement in their psychological health. This study aimed to extract the possible effectiveness of mHealth application utilizing the micro-learning method on a mobile phone platform on the intensive care nurses' resilience and happiness. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted in 2022-24. Sixty nurses working in intensive care units at two hospitals in Tehran, Iran were recruited using purposive sampling and randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group. Techniques of resilience and increasing happiness were taught to the intervention group using the mHealth application based on the micro-learning method. No training was provided to the control group. For data collection, questionnaires of individual characteristics, Connor-Davidson Resilience, and Oxford Happiness were used.
resultsBefore the intervention, there was no significant difference between the mean of the subscales and the total score of resilience and happiness of the intervention and control groups (P < 0.05). However, after the intervention, there was a significant difference (P < 0.05). After using the mHealth application, the total resilience score of the intervention group increased from 67.30 ± 10.12 to 79.27 ± 5.87 (P < 0.0001), while the resilience of the control group changed from 68.80 ± 9.09 to 65.93 ± 8.44 (P = 0.548). Similarly, using the mHealth educational application based on micro-learning led to an increase in the happiness score of the intervention group from 38.50 ± 11.10 to 67.83 ± 8.84 (P < 0.0001), whereas the happiness score of the control group nurses after the intervention (38.93 ± 14.33) compared to the baseline (41.40 ± 14.51) did not change significantly (P = 0.388).
conclusionsThe use of the mHealth application based on the micro-learning method played an effective role in training resilience and happiness skills in nurses. It is recommended to conduct more studies using this new educational approach.
