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: The migration of healthcare workers (HCWs) to European countries has witnessed a recent increase in both number and diversity. While facing various socio-cultural challenges in the host country, it becomes imperative to investigate the mental health of these workers, given the significance for their well-being and the safety of patients. This study aims to assess the extent of occupational stress and psychological distress among migrant healthcare workers in Ireland, along with exploring the contributing factors. Methods: A cross-sectional online survey, utilizing Google Forms, was conducted via social media platforms among overseas nursing and Healthcare Assistants currently employed in the Republic of Ireland. Occupational stress and psychological distress were assessed using the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire (BJSQ) and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6). Multivariable linear regression models were employed to identify significant predictors of occupational stress and psychological distress. Results: The response rate was 35.8 ( Conclusion: The findings highlight that HCWs experience moderate to high job stress, particularly those with <10 years of experience. Psychological distress was also prevalent, with private-sector employment associated with lower stress levels. These results emphasize the need for targeted interventions to support migrant HCWs' well-being.
