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
Compassion fatigue is a prevalent challenge experienced by helping professionals, influencing both their personal well-being and the quality of services they deliver. While the beneficial impact of expertise in counseling on alleviating compassion fatigue has been established, limited research has investigated this association specifically among mental health counselors within the cultural context of China. Additionally, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study examined whether expertise in counseling can reduce compassion fatigue and whether this relationship is mediated by core self-evaluation and resilience. A cross-sectional survey of 109 mental health counselors revealed that expertise negatively predicted compassion fatigue both directly and indirectly through enhanced core self-evaluation. However, resilience only exhibited a negative correlation with compassion fatigue and a positive correlation with core self-evaluation, its mediating effect between expertise and compassion fatigue was not supported. This study highlights the crucial role of expertise and core self-evaluation as mediating factors in alleviating compassion fatigue.
