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
Background: Evidence Based Practice is considered a complex process with many factors hindering its implementation. The use of focus groups to detect barriers to its application can provide an in-depth investigation of the phenomenon. Objective: The investigation of nurses' views regarding the obstacles connected to the implementation of Evidence Based Practice. Methods: This is a qualitative study carried out using focus groups and constitutes the continuation of a quantitative study. Deliberate sampling was used to recruit a total of 31 nurses. Results: The main categories that emerged regarding the obstacles in the implementation of Evidence Based Practice in nursing, concerned the lack of logistical support, the difficulty of accessing data, the insufficient knowledge of nurses as well as their attitude, the nature of the work, the decision-making process and the impossibility of safeguarding decisions made. Conclusion: In this study, various factors were identified that affect the application of Evidence Based Practice, in the nursing environment of Cyprus. Identifying these factors can be the basis for discussions and finding ways to resolve the problems that exist by health care managers.
