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

Mental health issues among nursing professionals have been increasingly reported during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. However, there is a paucity of research on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among nurses working in Medical Alliances. In this study, we aimed to investigate the risk factors associated with PTSD in the Regional Medical Alliance (MA) in Shantou (China) during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 1286 nurses from four MA hospitals participated in the study from February to March 2020. Our findings revealed that the incidences of PTSD, depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders among nurses from MA were 15.6%, 35.5%, 18.3%, and 36.4%, respectively. Moreover, PTSD was positively correlated with depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders. In addition, the results of logistic regression analysis showed that working in a tertiary hospital, older age, more severe depression, more severe anxiety, and prevalent sleep disorders were independent risk factors for PTSD among nurses. Therefore, mental health interventions targeting high-risk nurses in MA with an incidence of PTSD are urgently needed.
