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
backgroundResearch on organizational justice in hospitals in African countries are limited despite being important for workforce performance and hospital operational efficiency. This paper investigated perceptions and predictors of organizational justice among health professionals in academic hospitals in South-east Nigeria.
methodsThe study was conducted in two teaching hospitals in Enugu State, South-east Nigeria using mixed-methods design. Randomly sampled 360 health professionals (doctors = 105, nurses = 200 and allied health professionals, AHPs = 55) completed an organizational justice scale. Additionally, semi-structured, in-depth interview with purposively selected 18 health professionals were conducted. Univariate and bivariate statistics and multivariable linear regression were used to analyze quantitative data. Statistical significance was set at alpha 0.05 level. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically using NVivo 11 software.
resultsThe findings revealed moderate to high perception of different dimensions of organizational justice. Doctors showed the highest perception, whereas AHPs had the least perception. Among doctors, age and education predicted distributive justice (adjusted R
conclusionPerceptions of organizational justice range from moderate to high and predictors vary among different healthcare professionals. Addressing specific socio-demographic factors that significantly influenced perceptions of organizational justice among different categories of health professionals and departure from physician-centered culture would improve perceptions of organizational justice among health professionals in Nigeria and similar settings.
