Knowledge, attitude, and practice of hospice care among senior nursing staff in Chongqing and Hebei: a cross-regional study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. 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
Background: The demand for quality hospice care rises in China as the population ages. Specialized gerontological advanced practice nurses (GAPNs) are vital to the Chinese healthcare system, yet their knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding hospice care in China remain poorly understood. Objectives: To explore the KAP toward hospice care in specialized GAPNs and the factors influencing KAP. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from May 6, 2023, to July 30, 2023, in GAPNs working in Chongqing and Hebei. This study used a previously developed scale on the KAP toward hospice care. Descriptive analysis, univariable and multivariable regression analyses, and correlation analyses were used. Results: A total of 300 valid questionnaires were collected. The median knowledge score was 7. The median attitude score was 82. The proportion of participants with hospice care experience was 15.7%. The median confidence in practice score was 38. The median actual practice score was 40. High school/vocational school education and unwillingness to participate in hospice care were negatively associated with knowledge. Unwillingness to participate in hospice care and knowledge scores were positively associated with attitudes. Age 41-50 and attitude scores were positively associated with confidence in practice, while never provided hospice care and Hebei province were negatively associated. Conclusion: GAPNs in Chongqing and Hebei show moderate KAP toward hospice care, with Chongqing performing better. The regional differences found suggest the need for region-specific education and policy interventions.
