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

Spiritual well-being is essential to overall well-being for healthcare providers. Furthermore, providing spiritual care depends on providers' spiritual well-being and competence in assessing patients' spiritual care needs. Including spiritual care in maternal healthcare represents an opportunity to improve the quality of patient care. We conducted interviews with 20 maternal healthcare providers to understand how to address spiritual care implementation goals. Through thematic analysis, the following themes were identified: defining spirituality, the interplay of provider spirituality and spiritual care, and the barriers and facilitators to support provider well-being. Opportunities to support provider well-being, an essential piece of developing spiritual care programs, are discussed.
