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
backgroundMale nurses remain underrepresented in the global nursing workforce. Despite a growing need for gender diversity in healthcare, the career trajectories of male nurses, particularly those in managerial roles, have been underexplored.
aimThe aim of this study was to determine the career process experiences of male nurse managers.
methodDescriptive phenomenological design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study. Data were collected via video conferencing between September 2021 and February 2022 from 11 male nurse managers employed in university hospitals, Ministry of Health hospitals, and private healthcare facilities in Istanbul, Türkiye. Semi-structured interviews were conducted and analyzed using Colaizzi's phenomenological analysis method. The form consisted of open-ended questions designed to gather participants' personal and professional information, explore their experiences with career.
findingsCareer processes of male nurse managers findings were organized into four primary themes: "Pre-Employment Experiences", "Entering the Workforce", "Professional Experiences", "Career Development and Future Plans". These themes were further explored through the identification of 7 subthemes (Choice of Profession, Studentship, Interactions with Patients/Patient relatives, Interactions with Managers, Interactions with doctors, Being selected as a manager, Future plan) and corresponding codes.
conclusionMale nurse managers experienced both positive and negative situations related to their gender throughout their educational and professional journey, impacting their managerialprogression.
