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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesMissed nursing care is a patient-safety concern shaped by organizational resources, workload, and care prioritization. No Romanian version of the Revised MISSCARE Survey has previously undergone published cross-cultural and psychometric evaluation. This study translated and culturally adapted the instrument and examined its preliminary measurement properties and item-level findings in a Romanian hospital.

methodsA methodological, cross-sectional, single-centre pilot study invited all 487 nurses employed at a large university-affiliated hospital in western Romania. Translation and back-translation, expert review, and pretesting preceded electronic administration. Part A activities and Part B reasons were summarized descriptively. The Part B structure was investigated using polychoric correlations, parallel analysis, minimum-residual extraction, and promax rotation. McDonald's omega and ordinal alpha assessed internal consistency. A unique-response-pattern sensitivity analysis evaluated stability.

resultsOverall, 266 nurses participated (response proportion, 54.6%). Ambulation or mobilization was the most frequently missed activity, reported as missed at least occasionally by 55.3% of respondents, followed by bathing and skin care (36.8%), turning every two hours (36.5%), and mouth care (35.3%). The leading moderate or significant reasons were inadequate assistive or clerical personnel (84.6%), unexpected patient volume or acuity (83.5%), and inadequate staffing (82.7%). Parallel analysis supported two correlated Part B factors: organizational resources, coordination, and support; and staffing and workload pressure (r = 0.658). Omega was 0.968 and 0.943, respectively. The two-factor solution and item rankings remained stable in sensitivity analyses.

conclusionsThe Romanian Revised MISSCARE Survey produced interpretable item-level findings and preliminary evidence of a two-factor structure for Part B, with high internal consistency within each factor.
