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

objectiveExplain the Public Service Motivation of health professionals based on (a) the social environment of their workplace and (b) the perceived supervisor support.

designObservational, cross-sectional, quantitative, retrospective, and uncontrolled study.

settingForty primary care centers belonging to the Gran Canaria health area, primary care.

participantsSix hundred and five health professionals from primary care centers. 46% doctors and 54% nurses. Non-probability convenience sampling with a response rate of 53.3%. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: The dependent variable is the Public Service Motivation of health professionals. The independent variables are the social environment of the primary care centers and the perceived supervisor support. Data were analyzed using multilevel linear regression and multiple linear regression.

resultsThe following variables of the environment of the healthcare centers: income of the population, percentage of people older than 65 years, and the amount of population assigned to the centers, do not influence the Public Service Motivation of health professionals. On the contrary, the support they receive from their superiors does have a significant impact on both the compassion factor (β: 0.38; CI: 0.21-0.32) and the commitment to the public interest (β: 0.37; CI: 0.20-0.31).

conclusionsThe perceived supervisor support has a significant influence on the Public Service Motivation of health professionals. However, the social environment does not affect this type of motivation.
