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
Introduction: The healthcare industry, particularly in the context of primary care, presents various challenges to nurses and midwives, influencing their psychological empowerment (PE) and quality of work life (QWL). Objective: This study's objective is to assess the levels of PE and QWL among Jordanian primary care nurses and midwives and explore the relationship between PE and QWL. Methods: Utilizing a descriptive correlational design, the study included 273 Jordanian primary care nurses and midwives through convenience sampling. The Psychological Empowerment Instrument and Brook's Quality of Nursing Work Life Survey were used to measure PE and QWL. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics to describe the study participant's characteristics and inferential analysis such as Pearson correlation, and multiple regression to examine relationships and identify predictors of study variables. Results: The study found that the QWL scale had high reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.954), and similarly, the PE scale demonstrated strong reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.948). Moving on to the core findings, significant positive correlations were identified between PE and QWL, with a correlation coefficient of Conclusion: This study reveals a crucial need to enhance PE and QWL. Key findings show moderate PE and QWL levels, with variations based on educational background and workplace. The positive correlation between PE and QWL identifies the benefits of fostering empowerment through professional development, job autonomy, and decision-making. These insights are vital for improving nursing practice and policy and enhancing nurse satisfaction and patient care.
