Evidence-based nursing practice and improving pediatric patient care outcomes in the prevention of infection transmission: Emergency department findings.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundReducing the risk of infection transmission by getting emergency care for pediatric patients is a challenging task.
aimThe study aim was to assess emergency nurses' readiness to provide care for pediatric patients with infectious diseases.
methodTwo hundred Jordanian emergency department nurses were surveyed using a descriptive design.
resultsThe study revealed that insufficient safety and infection control procedures were put into place, starting with family support to allow nurses to work 145 (78%), family care plans intended to assist caregivers 139 (74.7%), the availability of respiratory protection and a backup plan for standard precautions, training requirements, and equipment 131 (70.4%), create a unit pandemic safety strategy 124 (66.7%), have a plan for emergencies for at-risk staff 116 (62.4%), have a hospital pandemic safety plan 113 (60.8%), manage inventory 102 (54.8%), use reuse guidelines if there will be severe shortages 99 (53.2%), create a strategy for nurses' access to healthcare for themselves and their families 96 (51.6%), and end with any required system updates for new policies 88 (47.3%). Staff nurses made up a large proportion of participants (145; 78%; 115; 62.8%) who said they lacked experience with care for pediatric patients with infectious illnesses who were critically sick. A 62.8% of nurses reported they did not have training in infectious disease emergency prevention and control for pediatric patients. What nurses prioritize it was determined that the concept of crisis standards of care (34.9%) was the most important educational topic for training emergency room nurses to care for pediatric patients who are critically ill with infectious infections, while the clarity of communication pathways was ranked lowest.
conclusionMore training and support are needed for emergency room nurses to properly care for children's patients with infectious illnesses.
