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

Background: COVID-19 surge events exacerbated many healthcare facilities' pre-existing nursing shortages. To address staff shortfalls, nurse leaders adopted a variety of strategies to supplement their workforce. Purpose: To identify and assess the interplay between board of nursing (BON) emergency guidance and the strategies healthcare facilities adopted to bolster their nursing workforce during peak pandemic periods. Methods: A national survey of nurse executives, as identified by the American Organization for Nursing Leadership, was conducted. Univariable and multivariable ordinal logistic regression models were used to evaluate the significance of observed trends. Results: Half of the 391 nurse executives who completed the survey indicated that their facility needed to supplement their RN staffing during peak periods of the COVID-19 pandemic ( Conclusion: Although the small sample limits the generalizability of these findings, preliminary evidence suggests recently retired nurses and prelicensure nursing students may provide valuable support services in the event of another public health emergency.
