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

objectiveTo map integrative practices used to address occupational stress in nursing professionals during the Covid-19 pandemic.

methodThis is a scoping review following the recommendations of the JBI Institute and PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The search was performed between March and April 2024 in the following databases: MEDLINE, LILACS, BDENF, IBECS via BVS, and CINAHL, SCOPUS and Web of Science via the CAPES Journal Portal. The selection, stratification and organization of the studies were carried out on the Rayyan platform. The results were presented in a synoptic table, with a descriptive and comparative analysis of the findings, highlighting the integrative practices and their evidence of effectiveness.

resultsEighteen studies were included, most of which were published in the United States in 2021. The most common practices were: mindfulness (16.6%), wobble rooms (11%), psychoeducation (11%), peer support (11%), and nonviolent communication (11%). All were effective in reducing stress, promoting well-being, and improving the quality of life of nursing professionals. Conclusions: The most widely used integrative practices were mindfulness and psychoeducation programs, with encouragement of nonviolent communication, all demonstrating effectiveness as interventions to reduce stress in nursing professionals during the pandemic. These practices emerge as viable and effective strategies to promote the mental health and well-being of these professionals.
