Nurses' experiences of encountering patients with mental illness in prehospital emergency care - a qualitative interview study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
backgroundNurses working in prehospital emergency care (PEC) encounter patients with all types of health conditions. Increasingly, they are encountering patients suffering from mental illness and this trend reflects the worldwide increase in mental illness. There is very little current knowledge of encounters between nurses and patients with mental illness in 'PEC', especially from the nurses' perspectives.
aimThe aim of the study is to investigate nurses' experiences of encountering patients with mental illness in 'PEC'.
methodsThe participants were recruited in a region in southeast Sweden (that covers approximately 5600 km
resultsThe result is presented in terms of three themes and eight sub-themes. The main themes are 'Lacking trust in the patient and one's own abilities', 'Being under internal and external influences' and 'Moving towards a genuine nurse-patient relationship'.
conclusionThe results show that nurses strive to lay the foundation for a trusting relationship. Simultaneously nurses encountering is characterized by a mistrust and it is influenced by pre-understanding and emotions when they take care for patients. The findings could be used to develop nurses' readiness and capability to encounter patients with mental illness and to respond appropriately to the patients somatic and mental care needs.
