1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: The aim of the study is to determine the relationship between epidemic management and manager support in healthcare institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic through the perception of healthcare workers. In the research, a scale development study was conducted for the "Epidemic Management Perception Scale". This scale determines the epidemic management practices in health institutions through the perceptions of healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The study is a methodological quantitative research. The data were collected from 365 healthcare workers using a systematic random sampling method. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were performed for the validity of the "Epidemic Management Perception" Scale. Cronbach's Alpha value was used in the reliability analysis of the scale. The theoretical model was tested using the Structural Equation Model. Results: Epidemic Management Perception Scale was introduced to the literature as a valid and reliable assessment form. In the research, relationships between variables were modeled using structural equation modeling. As a result of the research, a high positive and significant relationship was found between healthcare workers' perception of epidemic management and manager support in the healthcare institution during the COVID-19 pandemic ( Discussion: It was determined that manager support played an important role in healthcare workers' positive response to epidemic management practices in healthcare institutions. The supportive attitude of managers in health institutions is the most important factor in overcoming the epidemic process. It is important to inform health managers about the importance of manager support and to organize the necessary training activities.
