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
backgroundNurses experience elevated rates of operational stress injuries (OSIs). This can necessitate taking leave from work and subsequently engaging in a workplace reintegration process. An unsuccessful process can have long term impacts on a nurse's career, affecting the individual, their family, and broader community, while contributing to nursing shortages. A knowledge gap regarding the workplace reintegration of nurses experiencing mental health challenges, impedes the development and implementation of initiatives that might increase the success of nurses reintegrating into the workplace. This scoping review explored the existing literature concerning workplace reintegration for nurses experiencing OSIs.
methodsThe Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) reporting guidelines were utilized. Three key search terms across six databases were employed followed by a qualitative content analysis of the resulting literature.
resultsEight documents were included. The literature exhibited high heterogeneity in objectives, content, and article types. The content analysis revealed five themes: (1) recognizing stigma, (2) elements of successful workplace reintegration, (3) considerations for military nurses, (4) considerations for nurses with substance use disorders, and (5) gaps in the existing literature.
conclusionA paucity of programs, policies, procedures, and research exists regarding workplace reintegration for nurses facing mental health challenges. It is imperative to recognize that nurses may experience OSIs, necessitating mental health support, time off work, and operationally/culturally-specific assistance in returning to work. Innovative and evidence-based approaches to workplace reintegration are needed to enhance the retention of a skilled, experienced, compassionate, and healthy nursing workforce.
