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
backgroundPsychological care should be provided in intensive care units (ICUs) because of the proven mental symptoms of patients and relatives. Even physicians and nurses can benefit from a corresponding care structure. Knowledge is lacking whether and how psychological care for patients and relatives as well as support for staff in German ICUs is implemented. For this reason, a survey was conducted among the members of the German Interdisciplinary Association for Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine (DIVI) to gain an overview of the current structures and the need for psychological support.
methodsThe members of DIVI were invited to participate in a web-based survey. A total of 226 physicians and nurses took part in the survey. Analysis included statistics and group comparisons with Χ
resultsIn all care areas, psychological care of patients, relatives, and support for staff, respondents indicated a significant undersupply and expressed the need for improved care. A model which provides consular or team-integrated support based on the level of care is conceivable. DISCUSSION: The current state of psychological care in German ICUs does not cover the existing need. Consequently the development of concepts and the beginning of discussions on how appropriate psychological care can be implemented in the future is necessary.
