Multidimensional perspectives on nurse burnout in China: a cross-sectional study of subgroups and predictors.
Article in BMC nursing, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
backgroundBurnout is a state of physical and mental exhaustion triggered by long-term work stress, which is manifested mainly as emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a decreased sense of accomplishment. Among them, emotional exhaustion is its core feature, which often leads to a significant decrease in an individual's enthusiasm for work. Owing to the high intensity of the work environment and the special requirements of emotional labor, the nursing community is more vulnerable to burnout. This burnout not only affects the quality of care but also significantly increases nurses' willingness to leave their jobs.
objectivesThis study aimed to identify burnout subgroups among Chinese nurses and explore the predictors of each subgroup.
designA cross-sectional study.
methodsA total of 500 nurses were recruited for this study via convenience sampling, of whom 470 completed the survey. Nurses' burnout subgroups were identified through latent profile analysis of 15 items on the Burnout Scale. Relationships between subgroups and sociodemographic variables were subsequently explored via one-way ANOVA, chi-square tests, and multivariate logistic regression analyses.
resultsThree burnout subgroups were identified: low depersonalization with low achievement burnout (26.2%, n = 123), overall moderate burnout (52.1%, n = 245), and high emotional exhaustion with low achievement burnout (21.7%, n = 102). The results of multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that age, years of working experience, marital status, education level, and number of night shifts per month were significant predictors of different burnout subgroups among nurses.
conclusionThis study applied latent profile analysis to explore the subgroups of burnout among Chinese nurses, and the results revealed the diversity of burnout and provided a new perspective for future nursing research. Continued attention to the multifaceted factors affecting burnout and its dynamic changes is recommended to better understand and address the challenges facing the nursing profession.
