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

backgroundHealth staff are an essential component of the health system and a significant factor in improving health outcomes. As a result, without a suitable number of trained and supported workforces, health-related goals will not be achieved. As a result, one of the most significant tasks of the government and healthcare human resource management in healthcare organizations is focusing on development and maintenance of personnel.

methodThis study was a longitudinal and historical cohort study. Data was collected on the 40 medical universities and healthcare organizations under the jurisdiction of Iran Ministry of Health and Medical Education from 2008 to 2018 from the human resources database. In this study the COX regression and survival analysis was used to assess the factors of staff maintenance, retention rate, and the risk of turnover.

result46,939 health workforces were included in the study, of which 13,328 (28.4%) were men and 33,611 (71.6%) were women. Based on the finding of cox regression model, the retention of staff were statistically different between male and female. Employees whose current work place and birthplace were similar had a significantly higher probability of retention. Accordingly, the cox regression result showed, the risk of employee turnover for single personnel was higher than the married ones.

conclusionan applicable policy for increasing maintenance among workforce recruitment, could be considering the native born professionals instead of non-natives born which reduce the costs of employee turnover, including re-hiring, initial and on-the-job training, housing, and other extra living expenses away from home and family.
