Emergency nurses' communication experiences with patients and their families during the COVID-19 pandemic: A qualitative study.
Article in International emergency nursing, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundIn the emergency department, essential information is verified primarily through communication with patients and families. Thus, an in-depth understanding of emergency nurses' communication experiences with patients is required to facilitate the provision of effective therapeutic care.
objectiveTo analyze emergency nurses' communication experiences with patients and their families.
methodsA qualitative descriptive design was used. Interviews were conducted with 15 nurses between 2021 and 2022. Thematic analysis was carried out. This study was conducted in accordance with the consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative studies (COREQ).
resultsThree themes were identified: transformation of communication approaches due to COVID-19, obstacles in therapeutic communication, and continuous endeavors for improved communication.
conclusionEmergency nurses experienced various barriers in communication with patients and their families, which were exacerbated by COVID-19. Nevertheless, nurses attempted to enhance their communication skills. Organizational support is pertinent to establish effective communication strategies.
