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
Background: Rationing of nursing care, understood as the omission or inadequate performance of professional activities, is a phenomenon observed in medical care facilities around the world. It results not only in the risk of reducing patient trust and satisfaction with the care provided but also in adverse events that can significantly reduce patient safety. Aim: The aim of this study was to search for factors contributing to the rationing of care by Polish nurses. Material and Methods: This survey-based study, which involved 528 nurses from northwestern Poland, was performed in 2023. It was performed using a tool of our own design and three standardized questionnaires: the Basel Extent of Rationing of Nursing Care-Revised (BERNCA-R), the Satisfaction with Job Scale (SWJS), and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Results: The average BERNCA-R score was 1.52 points (SD = 0.95), which indicates a low level of rationing care by the surveyed nurses. Analysis of the SWJS results revealed that the respondents were rather dissatisfied with their work. The MBI confirmed high levels of burnout in all three subscales: emotional exhaustion (58.33%), depersonalization (55.3%), and personal accomplishment (83.5%). Linear regression analysis showed that in both univariate and multivariate models, the MBI emotional exhaustion subscale score, working 12 or 24 h shifts, and caring for a group of 11-20 patients were direct, independent predictors of rationing of nursing care as measured by the BERNCA-R. Job satisfaction, due to its statistical significance verified by multivariate analysis, was an independent predictor ( Conclusions: The phenomenon of nursing care rationing is associated with increased workload, low job satisfaction, and emotional exhaustion.
