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

Infection preventionists are specialized health care professionals tasked with developing and implementing infection control policies, educating staff and patients on prevention practices, and investigating outbreaks. Infection preventionists role in developing effective measures for infection prevention and control and ensuring public health and safety became even more vital given the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is important for health care systems and institutions to incorporate lessons learned, enhance infection prevention and control resources, and grow the infection preventionists workforce to prepare for future pandemic events.
