Corona phobia and mental health among nurses: identifying determinants in a cross-sectional survey.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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.

Abstract
Background: Assessing the psychological impact of the pandemic on nurses is essential for protecting their well-being and ensuring the resilience of healthcare systems. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional study following the STROBE reporting guidelines. The study included 417 nurses from Dokuz Eylul University Research and Practice Hospital who participated voluntarily. Data were collected between July and October 2021 using the Sociodemographic Data Form, the COVID-19 Phobia Scale (C19P-S), and the Mental Health Continuum Short Form (MHC-SF). Descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression analysis were used ( Results: The mean C19P-S score was 49.03 ± 17.29. Gender, education, perceived general health status, and intention to quit predicted 17% of COVID-19 phobia variance ( Conclusion: Nurses experienced moderate COVID-19 phobia, with female gender, undergraduate education, worse perceived health, and intention to quit emerging as significant predictors, collectively explaining 17% of the variance. Interventions are needed to strengthen nurses' mental health, particularly emotional well-being. Healthcare policymakers and administrators should implement strategies to support nurses' psychological well-being and foster a fear-free work environment through empowerment.
