Compassion Fatigue Experiences of Organ Transplant Nurses: A Qualitative Method.
Article in Nursing open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimThis study aimed to explore and understand the compassion fatigue experiences of organ transplant nurses.
designThis study employed the phenomenological design, which is a qualitative research method.
methodThe data of the study were collected from 13 nurses working at the Organ Transplant Clinics of a University Hospital in southern Turkey. A "Personal Information Form" and a "Semi-Structured Interview" form were used to collect data in face-to-face in-depth interviews held between December 2022 and June 2023. The content analysis method was used to analyze the data.
resultsIn this study, 248 codes, 11 categories, and three themes were obtained. The themes were "Causes of Compassion Fatigue", "Symptoms of Compassion Fatigue", and "Management of Compassion Fatigue".
conclusionIt was determined that all participants experienced compassion fatigue. The factors that contributed to the development of compassion fatigue were the high amount of care burden in the care of organ transplant patients, the insufficient number of nurses, having children, and rejection cases, whereas preventive factors included raising awareness regarding the development of compassion fatigue and the creation of personal care strategies. REPORTING
methodThis research has adhered to relevant EQUATOR guidelines, the consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative studies (COREQ 32-item checklist). PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Thirteen participants with at least a bachelor's degree in transplant nursing completed the research.
