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
Background: Healthcare workers are at the frontline of the fight against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The World Health Organization prioritized healthcare workers to receive COVID-19 vaccination immediately upon availability. This study aims to not only investigate the opinions and willingness of healthcare workers at a tertiary hospital to receive the COVID-19 vaccine but also assess the impact of vaccination on their work-related stress levels, before and after COVID-19 vaccination. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted using a web-based questionnaire consisting of three sections: "Demographic characteristics of the healthcare workers", "Opinions and willingness to receive the COVID-19 vaccination", and "Psychometric evaluation during the COVID-19 pandemic". Results: A total of 249 healthcare workers participated in the study and of these 248 (99.6%) completed the three doses of COVID-19 vaccination. The highest stress score was recorded for the subscale "Discomfort caused by the protective equipment". Nurses experienced significantly higher overall stress levels than other categories of healthcare workers, particularly related to the subscale "Workload of caring for patients". Although the stress score for the subscale of "Difficulties and anxiety regarding infection control" obviously decreased after vaccination, there was no significant improvement in the overall stress levels before and after vaccination (47.7 ± 16.8 vs. 47.1 ± 16.7, respectively), and both remained in the severe range. Conclusions: The willingness of healthcare workers to get COVID-19 vaccination is extremely high. However, receiving the COVID-19 vaccination does not seem obviously to impact work-related stress levels possibly due to the workload and variants of the virus with the potential for repeated infection. Therefore, additional policies aimed at reducing the physical and psychological burdens of healthcare workers, such as increasing staffing levels, should be implemented as soon as possible.
