Is urologist burnout different on the other side of the pond? A European perspective.
Review in Canadian Urological Association journal = Journal de l'Association des urologues du Canada, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The rate of burnout among physicians appears to be on the rise and urologist are no exception. In fact, urology appears to be one of the specialties most affected, with European urologists reporting burnout rates of up to 54% and those working in the United States up to 68%.Herein, we review the relatively few studies looking at burnout in European urologists to estimate its prevalence and discuss what could be done to reverse the trend. A total of seven studies were identified assessing burnout in urologists in Europe and Turkey. While the rates vary (9.3-68%), they indicate that burnout is prevalent within urology, with data from other studies suggesting there is a rising trend. Although the topic has been studied for many years, with an increased focus in the last decade, little seems to have been done to improve the situation.
