Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The global COVID-19 pandemic presented a period of considerable stress for healthcare professionals on a global scale. The strain on healthcare facilities nationwide has resulted in profound implications for the well-being of numerous healthcare practitioners. A heightened demand for extended working hours emerged, potentially amplifying the workload for these professionals. This study aims to scrutinize the workload levels experienced by healthcare professionals specializing in family medicine at a tertiary medical center. Our findings reveal a persistent escalation in workload over the course of the study. Notably, the overall mean workload index score exhibited a substantial increase from phase one to phase two (48.07 compared to 66.36). Recognizing the impact of workload variations according to professional roles is crucial for devising effective solutions. Consequently, comprehending the nuances of workload distribution among healthcare professionals is imperative for the successful implementation of targeted interventions.
