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

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the quality of the care provided to newborns at End-of-Life (EOL) stages and compare the care which is already being given to the infants admitted to the NICUs of the selected hospital in (XXX) with the existing standards. Knowing how End-of-Life nursing care is provided, compared with the standard in the terminal stage of neonates' life can provide accurate information for policies, research, and educational practices. Methods: In this descriptive study, 100 nursing care services, provided to neonates at the EOL stages and their parents, were observed and compared to the standard checklist which had been developed based on the literature review and existing standards in 2015. The study setting included the NICUs of the four hospitals affiliated to (XXX) The Content and Face Validity of the checklist were determined based on specialists' comments. The Content Validity Index was 94.85%, and its reliability was evaluated too through the inter-rater correlation coefficient (ICC = 0.715). Results: Only 11.49% of EOL nursing care services were given properly and 77.92% were not given at all. Results showed that 10.59% of EOL nursing care services were performed improperly. Conclusion: The overall rate of accordance with the EOL nursing care standards was poor (16.78%). Nursing care given to infants and their parents at EOL stages is far from the standards. This can be due to various reasons, such as inadequate training and the lack of comprehensive guidelines.
