1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Neonatology faces worsening challenges between the demands on its workforce and its current staffing models. This growing disparity has the potential to jeopardize patient care and the overall longevity of its workforce. The Improving Neonatology Staffing (INS) toolkit provides strategies, resources, and research to assist individuals and leaders in evaluating and improving their local staffing needs. Though addressing staffing issues is challenging, the INS toolkit can aid leaders and individuals to advocate for and work towards improving staffing to longitudinally improve the vitality of our workforce. KEY POINTS: There is a worsening imbalance with the demands placed on the neonatology workforce and its current staffing models. Issues in neonatology staffing have the potential to jeopardize patient care and the sustainability of its workforce. The Improving Neonatology Staffing (INS) toolkit offers a practical approach to addressing and advocating for staffing considerations. Its sectioned approach and fund of strategies and tools may be utilized systematically or applied separately to a group's or individual's needs. The INS toolkit serves as a vital resource in creating systematic and longitudinal change for staffing reform.
