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
Background: Healthcare providers working with victims of physical trauma are exposed to significant human suffering at work. This may place them at risk of burnout, secondary traumatic stress (STS), and other psychological disturbances. This study aimed to evaluate the professional quality of life and psychological well-being among trauma professionals. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study conducted among 153 staff members (nursing officers, resident doctors, and faculty) of a Level 1 trauma center in North India. The Professional Quality of Life (ProQoL-5) and Depression, Anxiety, and Stress (DASS-21) Scales were used. Results: More than 50% of the participants had a moderate risk of burnout and STS. In addition, 54% of participants reported having anxiety, 40% stress, and 36% depressive symptoms. Depression, anxiety, and stress were all strongly predicted by burnout and STS. Conclusion: Psychological distress symptoms were seen in a significant portion of professionals working in the trauma center. Workplace interventions for the promotion of psychological well-being among trauma professionals are recommended. How to cite this article: Gupta S, Bhatia G, Sagar R, Sagar S.
