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

The factors that influence the organizational commitment of healthcare professionals, particularly organizational communication and work satisfaction, are essential for all healthcare organizations. This is particularly important for those who are under the pressure of high demand, economic constraints, and staff shortages. This study examined the relationship between organizational communication satisfaction and organizational commitment among healthcare professionals and the mediating role of work satisfaction in the relationship. A validated self-administered questionnaire and a universal sampling approach were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey of 235 healthcare professionals in the Gaza Strip, Palestine. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 25 and SmartPLS software to perform partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). A STROBE checklist was used to report the results. The results show a significant positive correlation between all measured variables. Work satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between organizational communication satisfaction and organizational commitment. The results of the PLS-SEM analyses suggest that communication satisfaction and work satisfaction account for 61% of the variation in organizational commitment. This study reveals that work satisfaction and communication satisfaction are imperative to building a sense of commitment in healthcare professionals. These results reinforce the existing evidence on the factors that influence the organizational commitment of healthcare professionals. Strategies to better shape internal communication practices and improve the work environment through regular feedback to healthcare professionals are essential to strengthening their organizational commitment.
