Effectiveness of a Systematic Epidemic Prevention Program on the Coping Response of Nursing Staff Caring for High-Risk COVID-19 Patients.
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
aimsTo explore the effectiveness of a systematic epidemic prevention programme on the coping response of nursing staff caring for high-risk COVID-19 patients.
designA one-group pre-post-test pre-experimental design was used.
methodsThrough purposive sampling, a total of 84 nursing staff were recruited from a teaching hospital who had experiences in caring for high-risk COVID-19 patients. The participants underwent a systematic epidemic prevention programme. Before the intervention and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after the intervention at four time points, the coping response of the nursing staff was measured through three scales-the Impact of Event Scale-Revised, the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ), and the Brief Coping Orientations to Problems Experienced (Brief-COPE). The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics including generalised estimating equations, Pearson's correlation coefficient, independent samples t-test, and analysis of variance.
resultsThe systematic epidemic prevention programme significantly improved nursing staff's coping responses. IES-R scores decreased over time but did not reach statistical significance. GHQ scores showed a significant time effect, with reductions observed at 1 and 3 months post-intervention, and the greatest improvement at 3 months. Emotional coping significantly increased at 3 months post-intervention. Overall, the findings demonstrate a sustained improvement in coping responses across time points following the intervention. REPORTING
methodThe study followed the TREND and TIDieR checklists. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: None.
