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

introductionOrganizational commitment (OC) significantly impacts the quality of care provided by healthcare staff. It reflects employees' connection to and engagement with their organization, affecting job satisfaction, employee turnover, and the overall success of the healthcare organization. This research seeks to assess OC levels and identify its influencing factors among health sector staff in Shiraz, southwestern Iran.

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, the staff of the health sector including physicians/family physician (FP), midwives, healthcare workers, psychologists, dentists, and nutritionists were selected through a multi-stage sampling; they filled out an online 36-item questionnaire (12 demographic items and 24-item Allen and Mayer OC questionnaire). The data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 25). Descriptive statistics of OC scores were provided. Also, independent samples t-test and analysis of variance were used as statistical tests, and P-value < 0.05 was considered the significant level.

resultsOverall, 289 staff with a mean age of 32 ± 7.6 years participated in this study. The OC total mean score was higher in the public sector compared with the private sector and higher in the non-FP team compared with the FP team. The mean score of all types of OC among all job positions was low. Moreover, education level, workplace, job experience in current job, engagement in other jobs for making money, and FP staff showed a significant association with the total mean score of OC.

conclusionAccording to the results, OC among health sector staff is low. Therefore, policymakers in the health sector are strongly recommended to implement immediate measures to enhance this critical factor among their workforce.
