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

purposeTo explore pediatric nurses' challenges and effective coping strategies in caring for dying children.

methodsA descriptive qualitative study was adopted. Data were collected using a semi-structured interview with ten nurses from the pediatric, pediatric emergency, and neonatology departments.

resultsThree themes were generated: stressors, consequences, and coping strategies. Ten sub-themes were generalized: negative emotions; helplessness; questioning rescue behavior; fear of communication; lack of workforce for night rescue; compassion fatigue; burnout; changes in life attitudes; self-regulation; leadership approval and no accountability.

conclusionsThrough qualitative research, nurses' challenges and effective coping strategies in caring for dying children were found, which provides information for nurses' career development and related policy formulation in China. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: While there are many articles in China on hospice care, there is little research on the nurses' experience of caring for dying children. Many studies have mentioned the adverse consequences of caring for dying children in foreign countries, leading to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, domestic discussion of such problems is rare, and no corresponding coping strategies exist. This study explores pediatric nurses' challenges and effective coping strategies in caring for dying children.
