A cross-sectional study on resilience and death anxiety among emergency nurses.

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
backgroundEmergency nurses frequently encounter death and experience significant levels of death anxiety, impacting their mental well-being and professional performance.
objectiveExplore the levels of resilience and death anxiety among emergency nurses and examine the relationship between these two constructs. RESEARCH
designFollowing STROBE guidelines, a cross-sectional descriptive correlational design was employed, with data collected from 417 emergency nurses in three hospitals. TOOLS: The Socio-demographics Data Sheet, the Arabic Scale of Death Anxiety, and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale were utilized for data collection.
resultsResults indicated average moderate levels of resilience and death anxiety among participants. A negative correlation was observed between resilience and death anxiety, suggesting that as resilience decreased, death anxiety tended to increase. Significant associations were found between death anxiety and gender, age, and years of experience. The stepwise hierarchical linear regression analysis of substantial factors predicting death anxiety among emergency nurses revealed that resilience, years of experience, and gender were significant predictors of death anxiety, explaining 10.2% of the variance. CONCLUSION AND NURSING IMPLICATIONS: These findings underscore the importance of addressing mental health challenges among emergency nurses and highlight the need for interventions aimed at promoting resilience and mitigating death anxiety. By fostering a supportive environment and providing resources for mental health, healthcare institutions can empower emergency nurses to thrive in their demanding profession while delivering optimal care to patients in critical situations.
