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

Problem: Gender equality is one of the most important determinants of health. Discriminatory interventions, values, beliefs, and prejudices of healthcare professionals during their service affect health adversely. Background: There is not adequate information about the views of healthcare professionals on gender roles. Aim: This study was conducted to understand and define the views of healthcare professionals involved in the health system on gender roles. Methods: This study was performed using the "phenomenological method," one of the qualitative research methods. A total of 28 healthcare professionals - 10 midwives, 12 nurses, and 6 Findings: As a result of the descriptive analysis performed after the individual interviews about the views of healthcare professionals on gender roles, 6 main themes were determined. These themes are (1) the neglect of women by society, (2) using force on women, (3) seeing women as sexual objects, (4) having a say in society, (5) glorified masculinity and femininity roles, and (6) gender equality. Discussion: In this study, healthcare professionals expressed that women were neglected by societies since gender roles were determined by patriarchal societies. This situation adversely influences the health of individuals. Importance should be attached to equality between women and men to improve health. Healthcare professionals who support equality will improve the quality of care. Conclusion: Healthcare professionals should provide equitable services without discrimination. This equitable care they provide will positively affect the health of individuals.
