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
backgroundOperating rooms are high-risk environments where managerial attitudes and workplace distractions significantly impact patient safety and teamwork. However, the relationship between these factors remains insufficiently explored. PURPOSE: This study aims to identify the relationship between healthcare professionals' managerial attitudes and distractions in the operating room.
methodsA mixed-methods research design was employed. Quantitative data were collected using a descriptive and cross-sectional approach, while qualitative data were obtained through a phenomenological design. 82 healthcare professionals in the operating room of a hospital were involved in the study. The Operating Room Management Attitude Scale and the Distractions in Surgery Index were used for quantitative assessment and analyzed via SPSS 22.0. Semistructured in-depth interviews provided qualitative data, which were evaluated using content analysis.
resultsManagerial attitudes were identified as key determinants of team dynamics and workplace distractions. The total mean score of the Operating Room Management Attitude Scale was 148.95 ± 37.5, with the most affected subscales being stress and fatigue (30.85 ± 7.46) and work values (28.48 ± 8.12). The most common sources of distraction included temperature (62.68%), unavailable or not working equipment (57.8%), and tiredness (68.9%). Furthermore, inadequate organizational structures, communication deficiencies, and environmental factors contributed to increased distraction levels. Leadership style directly affected employees' job satisfaction and stress levels.
conclusionsImplications for practice: Implementing effective management strategies, ensuring a balanced distribution of workload, and minimizing distractions in the operating room can enhance patient safety by improving the efficiency and well-being of healthcare professionals. Future research should focus on evaluating the effectiveness of targeted interventions to mitigate these challenges.
