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

backgroundNurses were at the forefront of managing the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, the Royal College of Nursing in Northern Ireland commissioned a longitudinal qualitative survey using the Cognitive Edge SenseMaker

aimTo explore the effect of a co-designed video based on the findings of SenseMaker

methodQuotes were selected from the SenseMaker

resultsTwenty-eight participants completed the survey; 30 participants attended the live event. Overall, 93% (n = 26) of participants confirmed that the video-based monologues effectively conveyed the emotional perspective and lived experiences of nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Four themes emerged - personal reflection and emotional effect, connection and solidarity amidst disappointment, moral injury and resentment, lessons learned and the need for change.

conclusionWider dissemination of the co-created video-based narratives, with focus on advocacy to policy makers, is needed to prioritise the emotional well-being of nurses and other professionals. There is potential in using video-based monologies to facilitate positive change and better support for professionals, including nursing students in future crises. Further research is needed to assess the broader effect of such healthcare-related research methodologies.
