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
Limited research has explored the impact of migration on the manifestation of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) among internationally educated nurses (IENs) in Finland. This study aimed to describe Filipino IENs' experiences with the manifestation of NCDs among them. Secondary data from 10 IENs working in two hospitals were analyzed using Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis. The study adhered to the consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research (COREQ) checklist. Three key themes emerged: insufficient knowledge and lack of interest in health promotion, migration as a factor, and occupational health challenges. Migration was found to impact NCD occurrence. Inadequate knowledge and underutilization of occupational health services were identified as a barrier to prevent the risk of getting NCDs. Long waiting periods for appointments and language barriers exacerbated these risks. Limited awareness of available occupational health services and disinterest in health promotion contributed to NCD manifestation among IENs. Lengthy waiting times highlighted the need for educational campaigns on health-promoting activities. Cultural competence training for local healthcare providers can improve culturally sensitive occupational healthcare for IENs. Health promotion education should be provided to IENs before their migration. Upon arrival, nurse managers should inform the nurses about the availability of occupational healthcare services provided by the employer, ensuring easy access. Additionally, efforts should be made to ensure that nurses integrate well into society, including facilitating access to recreational activities.
