1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo determine the effect of a rational-emotive adult education intervention (REAEI) on burnout symptoms among primary school teachers in Southeast Nigeria.

methodsPrimary school teachers with burnout symptoms were randomised to treatment or control condition. Treatment was a 16-week REAEI programme delivered in 32 group therapeutic sessions. The Teachers' Burnout Inventory (TBI) score was recorded before and after therapy and at a three-month follow-up.

resultsOverall, 27% (86/320) of the sample of primary school teachers had burnout symptoms. TBI scores were statistically significantly lower in the treatment group compared with the control group both after therapy and at the three- month follow up.

conclusionIn this sample of primary school teachers, burnout symptoms were alleviated by use of a REAEI program.
