Physicians' mental health and coping during the COVID-19 pandemic: One year exploration.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Numerous cross-sectional studies have examined physicians' health and coping during the COVID-19 pandemic, while longitudinal studies are lacking. This study explores the progression over one year of physicians' physical and mental health symptoms, their strategies used to cope and discusses coping strategies in relation to physical and mental health symptoms. Two surveys, one year apart, exploring physicians' physical, mental health symptoms and employed coping strategies were sent to all physicians practicing in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. A total of 117 physicians participated in Round I (RI) (November 2020-January 2021) and 158 participated in Round II (RII) (October 2021-February 2022). Physicians' physical and mental health symptoms remained high, irrespective of their specialty or COVID-19 exposure. COVID-related Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder increased by five times at RII (
