Trying to create order in chaos-healthcare workers' perspective of COVID-19 intensive care (a qualitative study).
Article in BMJ open quality, 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.

methodsThe data consist of 22 semistructured individual interviews with regular and temporary healthcare workers involved in the intensive care of COVID-19 patients, including nurse assistants, registered nurses, critical care nurses and consultant and junior physicians. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data.
resultsThe overarching theme that emerged was
conclusionOur study demonstrates challenges and identifies workarounds, support strategies and personnel learning experienced by COVID-19 intensive care teams in delivering patient care, ensuring patient safety and managing staff resilience. The findings can be used to better prepare for future crises.
