Daily experiences of non-psychiatric nurses in acute psychiatric wards.
Article in Nursing open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
aimTo explore and describe the daily experiences of non-psychiatric nurses working in selected acute psychiatric wards in South Africa.
designA qualitative explorative and descriptive study design was used.
methodsIndividual face-to-face semi-structured interviews were used to gather data from fifteen non-psychiatric nurses with a minimum of one month of experience working in acute psychiatric wards in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Data were analysed using eight Tech techniques. The study is reported following consolidation criteria for reporting qualitative research.
resultsFindings on non-psychiatric nurses' daily experience revealed three themes: (1) Unsafe working environment, (2) Managing difficulties due to lack of skills and (3) Strategies to support non-psychiatric nurses in acute psychiatric wards. Findings suggested institutional and managerial interventions in the form of orientation, in-service training and workshops and resource provision. Future studies should be done to develop a model for supporting non-psychiatric nurses in Limpopo Province, South Africa's acute psychiatric wards.
