Job stress and its related factors among Korean dentists: An online survey study.
Article in International dental journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07541508 (Evaluation Of Stress Levels Of A Group Of Pediatric Dentist During Laryngeal Mask, Deep Sedation And General Anesthesia Procedures), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
objectivesThe aims of this study were to investigate the dentists' job-related stress using the newly developed Dentist Job Stress (DJS) questionnaire, and to explore the relationships among sociodemographic factors, job stress and mental health indicators, including psychosocial stress, depression, anxiety and sleep among Korean dentists. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn online survey including 1,520 dentists was conducted using the Brief Encounter Psychological Instrument-Korean version (BEPSI-K), the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), the State-Trait Anxiety Index (STAI) and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
resultsThe response rate was 15.2% (n = 231). The DJS questionnaire consisted of environmental and vocational factors, and Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.69. Dentists' job stress was significantly associated with income (P = 0.0230), work time (P = 0.0009) and job satisfaction (P < 0.0001). A bivariate correlation study revealed that the BEPSI-K, CES-D, STAI-S and PSQI exhibited a significant correlation with the DJS scale. Multiple regression analysis found that depression, job satisfaction and sleep quality were associated with dentists' job stress, and this model accounted for 37.9% of the variation in the DJS scale (P < 0.0001).
conclusionsThe findings of this study revealed that the DJS questionnaire showed acceptable validity and reliability, and dentists' job stress was associated with depression, job satisfaction and sleep quality. The major implication of this study is that a stress-management programme focusing on practical ways to improve the mental health status and job satisfaction of dentists is critical to the reduction of occupational stress among Korean dentists.
