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 COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a major shift in the delivery of healthcare services with the adoption of care modalities to address the diverse needs of patients. Besides, nurses, the largest profession in the healthcare sector, were imposed with challenges caused by the pandemic that influenced their intention to leave their profession. The aim of the study was to examine the influence of mode of healthcare delivery on nurses' intention to quit job due to lack of satisfaction during the pandemic in Canada. This cross-sectional study utilized data from the Health Care Workers' Experiences During the Pandemic (SHCWEP) survey, conducted by Statistics Canada, that targeted healthcare workers aged 18 and over who resided in the ten provinces of Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main outcome of the study was nurses' intention to quit within two years due to lack of job satisfaction. The mode of healthcare delivery was categorized into; in-person, online, or blended. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to examine the association between mode of healthcare delivery and intention to quit job after adjusting for sociodemographic, job-, and health-related factors. Analysis for the present study was restricted to 3,430 nurses, weighted to represent 353,980 Canadian nurses. Intention to quit job, within the next two years, due to lack of satisfaction was reported by 16.4% of the nurses. Results showed that when compared to participants who provided in-person healthcare services, those who delivered online or blended healthcare services were at decreased odds of intention to quit their job due to lack of job satisfaction (OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.43-0.50 and OR = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.61-0.67, respectively). Findings from this study can inform interventions and policy reforms to address nurses' needs and provide organizational support to enhance their retention and improve patient care during times of crisis.
