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

As health systems rapidly respond to COVID-19, it is unclear how these changes influence the experiences and well-being of female healthcare providers (FHCPs), including the potential for FHCPs to develop compassion fatigue and secondary traumatic stress. We conducted qualitative interviews (n = 15) with FHCPs at three locations (Washington, California, and New York). Interviews explored FHCP's perspectives on how care delivery changed, processes of information delivery and decision-making, gender inclusion, and approaches to managing stress and well-being. An inductive coding process was used to generate themes. FHCPs described significant changes to the way they delivered care, and their work environments, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Five themes emerged that characterized the experiences of FHCPs during COVID-19, including conflicting feelings while providing care, managing information and decisions, balancing roles, coping and well-being, and considerations for moving forward. FHCPs experienced many impacts to their professional and personal lives during COVID-19 that further complicated their ability to manage stress and well-being. The themes identified through this work offer important lessons about how to support the well-being of FHCPs and signify the widespread potential for compassion fatigue among FHCPs as a result of COVID-19.
