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

This study was aimed to determine the fear of COVID-19 and related factors in patients. This study was conducted with 639 patients who were admitted to the emergency department. Data were collected using the sociodemographic characteristics form, Fear of COVID-19 scale (FCV-19S). The data were evaluated with Student's t-test to compare two groups and one-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey's honestly significant difference (HSD) more than two groups. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between dependent and independent variables. The mean age of patients was 46.12 ± 17.02, 53.4% were male, 70.7% were married, 42.4% had a chronic disease, 18.3% stated that they had symptoms of COVID-19, and 38.0% stated that they experienced economic difficulties due to COVID-19. The COVID-19 fear scores were significantly higher in 57 ages and over, female, had lung disease, had COVID-19 symptoms, and had children. Having a lung disease, female gender, and fear of COVID-19 were statistically significantly correlated with FCV-19S scores. As a result, it was determined that patients admitted to the emergency department had fear of COVID-19. Further research is recommended to support our study findings. As an emergency nurse, strategies must be developed to cope with these fears.
