Meta-analytic findings can be useful to nurses seeking research results to guide practice, but graphics used by meta-analysts take time to master. Simpler displays can be created by staff development educators if they understand commonly used meta-analytic displays. For instance, simplified versions of 'forest plots', a common metaphoric display can be created to introduce staff nurses to meta-analytic findings published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and similar databases.
