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.

The Patient Health Questionnaire-2 was used to screen for depression. Statistical analyses included the Chi-square test, Mann-Whitney Results: A total of 359 provided valid responses. Among them, 11.4 % screened positive for depression. Significant individual factors related depression were management-stage nurses ( Conclusions: Mental health measures for PHNs should include workload management and reduced burdens through workforce enhancement, attention to burdens on managerial PHNs, promoting communication and mutual support, and opportunities to engage in disability welfare work.
