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
Resilience is important for nurses in preventing mental health problems, promoting psychological well-being, enhancing the quality of patient care, and empowering them to effectively manage healthcare crises. Fostering resilience and identifying its explanatory factors is essential for the nursing profession while facing persistent challenges during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Considering the scarce evidence, this study aimed to identify the current state of resilience and its explanatory factors among Nepalese nurses at a tertiary hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic. Cross-sectional research was conducted among 307 nurses (i.e., staff nurses and sisters in-charge) from tertiary hospital 'A', selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. The data were collected via a self-administered structured questionnaire using a socio-demographic and job-related information sheet and five other sets of standard, valid, and reliable instruments. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics, namely Pearson Product-Moment Correlation with multiple linear regression and path analysis. The highest percentage of respondents (51.8%) had an intermediate [i.e., neither low nor high] level of resilience. The model of resilience fits with the empirical data. Furthermore, self-efficacy, perceived social support (PSS), and compassion satisfaction (CS) were the statistically significant factors that explained 31 percent of the variance in resilience (Adjusted R2 =.31) with other non-significant factors (i.e., perceived organizational support and burnout). Additionally, PSS and CS had statistically significant positive indirect effects on resilience through self-efficacy, with their total effects. In conclusion, nurses had an intermediate level of resilience, and the resilience model aligned well with the empirical data. Therefore, hospital and nursing administration should consider these findings to design and implement targeted interventions that foster resilience. This can be achieved by preventing burnout and strengthening nurses' positive psychosocial resources, including compassion satisfaction, self-efficacy, and social and organizational support, to help them navigate the challenges of their demanding profession.
