A meta-analysis on predictors of turnover intention of hospital nurses in South Korea (2000-2020).
Synthesis in Nursing open, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 57 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
aimsTo identify the predictors of Registered Nurses' turnover intention and analyse the effect sizes.
designA systematic review and meta-analysis of previous research, conducted to comprehensively identify the predictors of turnover intention.
methodsIn total, 417 studies from 1 January 2000 to 30 April 2020 that investigated predictors of turnover intention of South Korean nurses were reviewed. The data were analysed using the R statistical package. Network graphs were used to analyse the relationships among turnover predictors, and meta-analysis was performed to determine the effect sizes of the correlations.
resultsThis review analysed common predictors identified in previous studies. Burnout (0.541), emotional exhaustion (0.511), job stress (0.390) and career plateau (0.386) showed positive effect sizes, while organizational commitment (-0.540), person-organizational fit (-0.521), career commitment (-0.508), work engagement (-0.503), job satisfaction (-0.491) and job embeddedness (-0.483) showed negative effect sizes.
