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 explore the occurrence and dynamic trends of psychological stress responses of medical staff experiencing workplace violence at different time points.

methodsA longitudinal study of 23 medical workers who experienced workplace violence was conducted. The perceived stress scale (PSS-4), posttraumatic stress disorder checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), and hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS) were used to measure the medical workers' psychological perception of pressure, posttraumatic stress symptoms, anxiety, and depression at the time of exposure to violence, at 1 month, 2 months, and 4 months after exposure in the workplace, respectively. Repeated measures analysis of variance was applied to analyze psychological stress response and temporal effect. Factors influencing psychological stress responses were analyzed.

resultsThe scores of PSS-4, PCL-5, HADS-anxiety, and HADS-depression of medical staff exposed to violence began to increase at the time of exposure, peaked 1 month after exposure, and gradually decreased 2 months and 4 months after exposure (all P<0.05). The main influencing factors were being nurses, physical violence, working years ≤5, and being female.

conclusionEffective interventions for medical staff should be made up to 1 month after exposure to workplace violence when the psychological stress responses are the highest.
