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 and aims: Critically ill patients in intensive care units (ICUs) require specialized care, and inadequate pain management remains a prevalent issue that contributes to long-term complications and adversely affects recovery. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of nurse-led interventions on pain related to critical care and the prevention of ICU-related complications among patients. Patients and methods: A quasi-experimental pretest posttest control group design was adopted for this study, which was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in Mangaluru, Karnataka State, India. Patients admitted to the ICU ( Results: In the intervention group, 53.3% of patients were aged 60-69 years, whereas in the control group, 40.0% of them were between 50 and 59 years. The intervention and control groups reported a reduction in critical care pain scores and ICU-related complications ( Conclusion: The findings underscore the effectiveness of nurse-led interventions in mitigating critical care pain and reducing ICU-related complications, demonstrating their potential as an evidence-based strategy to improve patient outcomes.
