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

objectiveTo investigate the occupational identity of primary health technicians in Qiqihar City and to analyze its influencing factors.

methodsFrom September 2020 to October 2020, 436 primary health technicians were selected from the primary health centers in Qiqihar City using the convenience sampling method. After eight invalid questionnaires were excluded, the total number cases was 428. The questionnaires were used to conduct surveys and perform a data analysis.

resultsIn Qiqihar City, the primary health technicians are densely distributed among community hospitals, township hospitals, and village clinics. The personnel include general practitioners, specialists, medical technicians, Chinese medicine practitioners, and nurses. The occupational identity of the basic-level health technicians in Qiqihar is at a medium level. The total job stressor scores among the primary health technical personnel in Qiqihar City and the total satisfaction scores are at the moderate level. The scores and total scores of each dimension of the job stressor scale were negatively correlated with the occupational identity scores (P<0.01). The scores and total scores of each dimension on the satisfaction scale demonstrated a positive correlation with the total professional identity scores (P<0.01). A very notable difference was found in the ages and years of work experience in the occupational identity scores in our univariate analysis (P<0.05). Our multiple linear regression analysis revealed that years of work experience, work pressure, and job satisfaction are the influencing factors of the status quo of the occupational identity of the basic-level health technicians (P<0.01).

conclusionYears of work experience, work pressure, and the job satisfaction of primary health technicians are the influencing factors of their professional identity. Thus, strengthening humanistic care and communication, alleviating the psychological pressure of basic-level health technicians, rationalizing the work tasks, and providing more training and learning opportunities remain urgent tasks for boosting the professional identity of basic-level health technicians.
