Reach of an Occupational Health and Safety Program to Improve Sleep and Fatigue Among Nurses.
Article in Western journal of nursing research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundTraining and education may benefit nurses whose nonstandard work hours put them at risk of poor sleep, fatigue, and ensuing adverse health and safety outcomes. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) published "Training for Nurses on Shift Work and Long Work Hours" in 2015 as a free online resource which remains one of the few trainings available on this topic. However, the extent to which nurses have completed the program and the characteristics of current learners have not been examined.
objectiveWe aimed to describe the potential reach of the NIOSH Training for Nurses between May 2015 through December 2020.
methodsData were obtained on learners who received continuing education credits upon completion of the NIOSH Training for Nurses. We applied a widely used implementation and evaluation framework, RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance), to describe the potential reach of the nurses' training and provide descriptive statistics of learners.
resultsFrom 2015 to 2020, 7899 learners from different occupations received continuing education credits for completing the training. Approximately 60% of learners were nurses and 30% were students. Among nurses, most were Registered Nurses (93%), with few Licensed Practical Nurses (6%) and Advanced Practice Nurses (2%). In 2020, the number of learners who were nurses represented only 0.09% of all licensed US nurses.
conclusionA renewed dissemination plan may help extend training reach to the larger population of licensed US nurses. The NIOSH training remains a seminal, freely available, online resource for nurses, filling a critical gap in training to manage work-related fatigue.
