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
This short report aims to investigate the association between teamwork and burnout among general practitioners (GPs). A two-stage survey was conducted. In stage one, validated self-report measures of burnout and teamwork were completed by 50 GPs across 12 general practices in Greater Manchester, UK. In stage two, staff members across 3 of the 12 general practices (GPs, nursing staff, managers and admin staff) responded to free text questions about teamwork (n = 20). The results of the stage one survey showed that teamwork in GPs was significantly negatively associated with the emotional exhaustion (r = -0.326, P < 0.05) and depersonalization (r = -0.421, P < 0.01) domains of the burnout measure and significantly positively associated with the personal accomplishment (r = 0.296, P < 0.05) domain. Free text responses in stage two were assigned into three themes: (i) addressing organizational barriers which might threaten teamwork, (ii) promoting the view of teamwork as a shared responsibility among all staff members of the general practice and (iii) implementing improvement strategies which can be embedded in the busy environment of general practices. GPs and other staff members of general practices valued the importance of teamwork for boosting their morale and mitigating burnout. Future research should focus on designing and embedding brief teamwork improvement strategies in general practices.
