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

Background: Elevated occupational stress poses a significant challenge for nurses, especially those in critical care settings. Effectively managing this stress is crucial for both the well-being of nurses and the safety of patients. This study aimed to explore the effects of a mindfulness-based intervention on the occupational stress levels of nurses working in critical care units. Methods: This randomized controlled trial involved a convenience sample of 68 nurses from critical care units. Participants were randomly assigned to either an intervention group ( Results: Prior to the intervention, mean occupational stress scores were comparable between the intervention group (33.37 ± 7.43) and the control group (33.80 ± 7.71) ( Conclusions: Mindfulness interventions are effective in alleviating occupational stress among nurses in critical care units. This cost-effective and simple approach shows potential for reducing workplace stress. Further research is warranted to evaluate long-term effects and broader applications.
