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
objetiveThis phenomenological study aims to describe the care experiences of Turkish ICU nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
methodData were collected through semi-structured interviews with 12 ICU nurses. This study was conducted in public hospitals, which were the main centers of the pandemic in Türkiye. Data were analyzed by descriptive, comparative and relational analysis methods.
resultsA total of 851 primitive codes were identified. Four themes, 12 categories, 47 codes, and 13 sub-codes were determined: (a) Categories of the theme "Holistic Care Approach": barriers, communication, and spiritual care. (b) Categories of the theme "Process Management": precautions, challenges, adaptation, and treatment processes. (c) Categories of the theme "Physical-Psychological Effects": physical effects and psychological effects. (d) Categories of the theme "Ethical Dilemma": ethical behaviors, unethical behaviors, and working principles. In the relational analysis, participants expressed their opinions on challenges, as well as on precautions, workload, duration of care, and health deterioration.
conclusionParticipants reported both positive and negative care experiences. Negative experiences can adversely impact patient safety, whereas positive experiences serve as a source of hope and motivation, encouraging nurses to continue providing holistic care.
