1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 describe what registered nurses' experience to be important to job satisfaction in nursing home settings.

designThis is a qualitative study based on data from individual interviews.

methodsSixteen registered nurses working in nursing homes were interviewed, and their responses were analysed with systematic text condensation.

resultsA total of six categories were developed to describe various aspects of job satisfaction among registered nurses at nursing homes: meaningfulness is essential, to possess control and manageability is central, a possibility to balance daily challenges with professional development, supportive leadership is imperative, the nursing team's competence and companionship, and being confident in one's own profession.

conclusionIn the present study, meaningfulness was essential to job satisfaction, and work was experienced to be meaningful and engaging when the demands were manageable, the workload controllable, and when the registered nurses felt supported by management and co-workers. Conversely, if the demands were too high, the workload was beyond their control and the nurses felt unsupported, then the work felt meaningless and thus unsatisfactory.
