The effects of the reorganisation of an intensive care unit due to COVID-19 on nurses' wellbeing: An observational cross-sectional study.
Observational study in Intensive & critical care nursing, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesTo evaluate the effects of the reorganisation of an intensive care unit for COVID-19 patients in the context of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on wellbeing perceived by nurses.
methodsAn observational cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate wellbeing perceived by nurses who during the study were on duty in the COVID-19 intensive care unit. The "Covid-19-Nurse Well-being at Work (NWB) scale" questionnaire consisting of 72 items divided into 13 sections, was validated and used to collect data.
resultsThe level of wellbeing perceived by the nurses was very good (4.77; SD 0.83). Differences in the of level of perceived wellbeing were found for "years of experience" and the various levels of competence. We found a positive correlation between "female gender" and "nurses' togetherness and collaboration", a negative correlation between "male gender" and "satisfactory practical organisation of work, and a negative correlation between "work experience" and the overall "level of wellbeing at work.
conclusionsThe reorganisation had positive effects in terms of wellbeing perceived by the nurses. The factors that contributed mostly to the perception of wellbeing were in the area of "support", "communication, and "socializing with colleagues". It is appropriate to consider "gender differences", "work experience" and "levels of competence" when implementing this type of reorganisation to respond to a pandemic or a health emergency.
