Article in Healthcare (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundExperiential learning in specialized psychiatric hospitals is as essential as other learning in any discipline in nursing education as it allows student nurses to correlate theory to practice. Experiential learning in the mental health environment has been identified as a significant factor in promoting a more favorable attitude among student nurses toward mental health nursing.
aimThe study explored student nurses' personal experiences regarding experiential learning in specialized psychiatric hospitals.
methodsA qualitative approach using explorative, descriptive, and contextual designs was used, and 51 student nurses were purposively sampled. Data were collected through six focus group interviews and analyzed using a thematic approach. Measures to ensure trustworthiness were also enhanced. Ethical considerations were adhered to throughout the study.
resultsOne theme and four sub-themes on the experiences of student nurses regarding experiential learning in specialized psychiatric hospitals were revealed, namely: theme: personal factors; sub-themes: fear of mental healthcare users, anxiety about clinical assessment, lack of interest in psychiatric nursing science, and stress due to social problems.
conclusionsBased on the findings, student nurses experience many things during experiential learning, including personal factors. A further qualitative study should be conducted on strategies to support student nurses during experiential learning in the specialized psychiatric hospitals of Limpopo Province.
