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

Objectives: Telenursing in cardiac care leverages technology to support self-care and optimize outcomes for heart failure patients during and beyond the pandemic. This study aims to explore nurse's knowledge and attitudes towards telenursing in cardiac care, examine the correlation between knowledge and attitude, and associate knowledge levels with selected demographic variables. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, and 149 nurses from Prince Sultan Cardiac Care Center hospitals were randomly selected. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire, including socio-demographic characteristics, knowledge, and attitudes about telenursing. Results: The mean age of the nurses was 36.17 ± 6.5 years. Most nurses (64.4%) held a bachelor's degree, with 71.8% working as staff nurses. Nearly half (47.6%) had 6-9 years of professional experience. Among them, 15.4% had good knowledge, 63.8% had average knowledge, and 20.8% had poor knowledge, with a total mean knowledge score of 14.92 ± 3.2. Overall, nurses had positive attitudes towards telenursing ( Conclusion: Strengthening nurse's understanding of telenursing is vital. Focused educational and training programs are imperative to enhance knowledge about telenursing in cardiac care and alleviate the healthcare system's economic burden.
