Differences in compassion satisfaction and compassion fatigue among oncology nurses in Oman: A multi-center cross-sectional study.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundOncology nurses are constantly exposed to occupational exposure to the suffering of others, which can lead to vicarious traumatization, low professional quality of life (ProQOL), and inability to provide quality nursing care. The purpose of the study is to explore the ProQOL of oncology nurses working in Oman and the characteristics that lead to differences in compassion satisfaction (CS) and compassion fatigue (CF). MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional design was conducted between March and December 2020 using the ProQOL scale to collect data from 242 oncology nurses in Oman using a convenience sampling technique. The rates of CS and CF [(secondary traumatic stress (STS) and burnout (BO)] were summarized using descriptive statistics. The characteristics leading to differences in CS and CF were assessed using the independent-sample
resultsOnly 35% reported high levels of CS. Most nurses reported moderate STS (60%) and BO (65%). Nurses aged ≥36 years, ≥10 years of professional experience, ≥6 years of oncology experience, married, and desiring to work with cancer patients reported higher levels of CS.
conclusionOmani oncology nurses have low levels of CS. The nurses' desire to work with cancer patients, professional experience, and the age of cancer patients regularly affected the experience of CF. The identified characteristics can be exploited to mitigate deterioration in oncology nurses' ProQOL using targeted interventions for high-risk individuals. Beneficial interventions may focus on continuing education, stress management, coping, work environment, teamwork, and communication of oncology nurses and other members of the healthcare team.
