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

Objective: The study aims to investigate factors that prevent burnout (BO) and symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) while facilitating posttraumatic growth (PTG) among nurses combating the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, with the purpose of validating the mediating effects of PTG. Methods: A total of 247 nurses who provided patient care during the COVID-19 pandemic were enrolled, and a questionnaire was used to measure BO, PTSD, and PTG, data on deliberate rumination, emotional expression, adaptive cognitive emotion regulation (CER), maladaptive CER, and social support. The mediation path models for the effects of the predictors on BO and PS through the mediation of PTG were analyzed using the R Lavaan package. Results: The results showed that deliberate rumination, emotional expression, and adaptive CER significantly increased PTG, while PTG significantly reduced BO and PTSD symptoms (PSs). However, maladaptive CER did not have a significant effect on PTG and only had significant direct effects on BO and PS. Bootstrapping confirmed that PTG significantly mediated the effects of all predictors. It partially mediated the effects of deliberate rumination and adaptive CER and completely mediated the effects of emotional expression. Conclusion: Based on the results, it has been supported that deliberate rumination, emotional expression, and adaptive CER should be addressed as important variables in psychological interventions addressing nurses' adversities during the pandemic. These variables can prevent BO and PS by facilitating PTG.
