Low back pain, occupational stress, and physical fitness in intensive care nursing professionals.
Article in Revista brasileira de enfermagem, 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
objectivesto assess the association between low back pain, occupational stress, and physical fitness in intensive care nursing professionals.
methodsquantitative cross-sectional study with convenience sampling, including sociodemographic data, occupational stress, and physical fitness (cardiorespiratory capacity, body composition, flexibility, strength, and muscle endurance). Low back pain was assessed using disability, duration, and frequency scales.
resultsamong 83 intensive care nursing professionals, 72.3% reported low back pain in the past year, and 50.6% presented with moderate to high occupational stress. Low back pain was associated with workload and trunk flexor strength. The other physical fitness variables did not vary among groups. Functional disability was similar among individuals with and without low back pain.
conclusionstrunk flexor strength was associated with a lower low back pain incidence in intensive care nursing professionals. Vigorous physical activity showed a tendency towards association, while occupational stress did not show a relationship with low back pain.
