A comparative study on patient safety culture among high-risk hospital staff in the context of the COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 pandemic: a cross-sectional study in Taiwan.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The study aimed to compare the evolution of patient safety culture perceived by high-risk hospital staff in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and non-COVID-19 pandemic and to examine the variations in patient safety culture across demographic variables. The study found that the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted patient safety culture in healthcare settings, with an increased focus on safety climate, job satisfaction, teamwork climate, stress recognition, and emotional exhaustion. Safety culture and work stress vary among medical professionals of different age groups. To reduce stress, workload should be minimized, work efficiency improved, and physical and mental health promoted. Strengthening safety culture can reduce work-related stress, improve job satisfaction, and increase dedication towards work. The study recommends interventions such as psychological and social support, along with emotional management training, to reduce emotional exhaustion. Healthcare institutions can set up psychological counseling hotlines or support groups to help medical professionals reduce stress and emotional burden.
