The Protective Role of Resilience in Emotional Exhaustion Among Dental Students at Clinical Levels.
Article in Psychology research and behavior management, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
purposeThe epidemic of burnout among dental students has been repeatedly documented. This study aimed to assess burnout, specifically emotional exhaustion (EE), and examined the impact of protective and risk psychological factors for EE among clinical-level dental students in Saudi Arabia (SA).
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted, using a convenience sample of undergraduate dental students who were recruited from five separate dental schools. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to 500 students to obtain socio-demographic data and to assess the students' psychological characteristics (Maslach Burnout Inventory EE subscale, Dental Environment Stress Scale [DES] and Brief Resilience Scale [BRS]). Descriptive, bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed.
resultsOf 272 respondents, 53% reported high EE. Adjusted multivariable logistic regression modelling demonstrated that students who reported higher BRS scores were significantly less likely to report high EE (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]=0.79, 95% CI=0.70-0.89, p<0.001). However, females were more than twice as likely as males to report high EE (AOR=2.27, 95% CI=1.14-4.61, p=0.024). In addition, students who reported higher DES scores also reported high EE (AOR=1.10, 95% CI=1.07-1.12, p<0.001).
conclusionThe findings suggest that resilience is a protective factor against high EE, after adjusting for key characteristics. There is a need for a preventive programme that addresses EE, taking into consideration other unexplored underlying factors.
