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
aimThe aim of this study is to explore midwives' coping and functioning in the labour wards during the Covid-19 pandemic from the Labour Ward Head Nurses' perspective.
backgroundThe World Health Organization announced the Covid-19 outbreak to be a pandemic in March 2020. Midwives worldwide were affected by this outbreak, working in risky environments, confronting the anxiety and fear of childbearing women.
methodsA qualitative study using thematic analysis was conducted using semi-structured interviews done over the telephone. Thirteen Labour Ward Head Nurses were interviewed, and the texts were analysed. The study took place in April 2020 during the first Covid-19 lockdown in Israel.
resultsThree main themes were generated in the coding process: (a) stress, fear and anxiety, (b) joint efforts and (c) frustration.
conclusionOur study illustrates the difficulties that arose at the beginning of the pandemic, a new and unfamiliar chaotic period. Midwives' managers can use the current research to learn about actions that may assist in improving staff resilience and cohesion during times of crisis. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Understanding the psychological impact of the Covid-19 pandemic among health care professionals is crucial for guiding policies and interventions to maintain staff's psychological well-being.
