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
backgroundThe roles of nurses in disaster response are noteworthy due to their contributions to the well-being and resilience of healthcare workers and affected communities. The aim of this study is to determine the factors affecting the caregiving competence of nurses with experience of disaster interventions.
methodsA qualitative research design with a descriptive phenomenology approach was used. Data were collected from July-December 2023 with participation of 22 nurses, face-to-face with a personal information form and a semi-structured interview form. Colaizzi’s seven-step method and MAXQDA 20 were used to analyze the data. The Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Studies was used.
resultsThrough in-depth analysis of the data obtained, three themes of inadequate preparedness and coordination, challenges due to the nature of the disaster and full preparedness for disaster emerged.
conclusionsIn this research, it was determined that inadequate organizational preparation negatively impacted the caregiving competence of nurses. Additionally, the findings of the study support the need for comprehensive training related to disaster and emergency care nursing in order to be prepared for disasters. Examining nurses’ experiences during disaster response can make a meaningful contribution to improving disaster policies. In disaster response, nurses struggle with many difficulties arising from environmental, administrative, individual and educational factors. Nurses need to be psychologically strengthened for possible disaster response. The results of academic studies should be taken into account in the formation of disaster-related policies. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
