Frequency of Workplace Burnout Among Postgraduate Trainees in a Teaching Hospital in Mirpur.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundWork-related stress and burnout among medical practitioners has been a frequently studied phenomenon. It reduces work efficiency and productivity and also has negative impacts on patient care. This study assessed the extent of work-related stress and burnout and the reasons behind this burnout among the Internal Medicine and Pulmonology residents of Mirpur, Azad Kashmir. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis cross-sectional, observational study was conducted among the postgraduate trainees of Internal Medicine and Pulmonology in Mohi-uddin Islamic Medical College and Hospital, Mirpur, Azad Kahsmir. Out of the 70 trainees, 64 completed the study (response rate: 85.3%). The trainees recorded their sociodemographic profile including age, gender, marital status, name of the department, and year of training. Work-related stress and burnout were assessed using a 28-question-based Burnout Questionnaire adapted from the American Welfare Association. Reasons of burnout among the postgraduate trainees were recorded. Data were analyzed using SPSS v. 21.
resultsThere were 45 men (70.3%) and 19 women (29.6%). The mean age of the trainees was 29.25 ± 2.87 years. No stress and professional burnout was reported in 20.3% residents; 29.6% residents had stress but no professional burnout; 23.4% residents had fair chances of burnout; 14% residents had early burnout; and 12.5% residents had advanced burnout. Higher grades of burnout are more common among male residents, those who are married, and those in early years of postgraduate training. Common reasons of work-related burnout were reported to be long work hours (68.75%), decreased job satisfaction (54.7%), and lack of workplace facilities (45.3%).
conclusionMost of the residents in Mirpur have work-related stress and are at the verge of burning out. Large-scale studies, assessing more correlates, must be conducted in this region to give a better understanding of this phenomenon and help formulate plans to prevent and manage work-related stress and burnout among the postgraduate trainees.
