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
backgroundNurses' level of experience regarding providing care to dying patients and their thoughts on the "good death" term have a significant impact on the quality of the care they provide.
objectiveThis study aims to examine the relationship between fatalistic dispositions and nurses' attitudes toward euthanasia, death, and terminally ill patients.
methodsThis study was designed as a cross-sectional descriptive and analytical study. The study was performed with 319 nurses between March and May 2023.
resultsA relationship between the Attitudes Toward Euthanasia, Death, and the Terminally Ill Patients Scale and the fatalistic dispositions scale in a positive direction at a moderate level was found (p < 0.05). According to the regression analysis, it was determined that the nurses' fatalistic dispositions were associated with their attitudes toward euthanasia, death, and terminally ill patients (p < 0.05).
conclusionTo improve nurses' negative attitudes toward death, it may be recommended to develop programs that provide psychosocial support for them.
