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.

A descriptive, comparative and correlational study was conducted. Participants included professionals from the Neurosurgery, Pneumology, Emergency Service and Floating Staff units in a tertiary-level hospital in Spain. Data were collected through an anonymous and voluntary online survey, which included sociodemographic data, Collett-Lester fear of death, emotional intelligence and resilience scale. Participation was anonymous and voluntary. A total of 121 professionals participated, predominantly women (85.12%), with a mean age of 41.89 years (SD ± 9.6). Nurses compromised 64% of the sample. Fear of others' death (37.2%) and the dying process of others (33.1%) increased. Emotional intelligence levels were generally adequate across all work areas, with women scoring higher in attention and clarity. However, significant differences in emotional regulation were observed between groups. Resilience scores were high across all participants (> 78.77). Positive correlations were found among age, fear of the dying process of others (
