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
Context: The first emergency nurse practitioners have been working in France for two years now. Their arrival may raise questions, but they are seen as a potential solution to the crisis of overcrowding in emergency department. As a new profession in the emergency department, it is crucial to study the characteristics of the professional identity in order to provide the keys to understanding their place and the role they can play within systems of care. Aims: We wanted to explore the perceived characteristics of the emergency nurse practitioners by the physicians, nurses, health care managers, and emergency nurse practitioners themselves. Methods: This is a multicenter qualitative study. 21 semi-structured interviews were conducted in 5 distinct hospitals from April to June 2024. Participants included nurses, emergency nurse practitioners, physicians, and healthcare managers. Data were analyzed using thematic coding. Results: Four themes emerged concerning the characteristics of emergency nurses practitioners professional identity: A combination of skills in a variety of fields (1), a pivotal professional, expert in the care pathway, at the interface with other emergency professions (2), a dual identity anchor: nurse and emergency professional, (3) and a position that is still in its nascent stages, plagued by uncertainty and obstacles (4). Conclusion: This study revealed the characteristics of the professional nursing identity. It emerges that professionals see the emergency nurse practitioners as an intermediary player in the care response and as an expert in the care pathway.
