Prevalence of burnout and impact of workload on physician wellness: A cross-sectional survey of hospitalists in British Columbia, Canada.
Article in Journal of hospital medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundHospitalists in British Columbia care for a large percentage of hospitalized patients across 21 acute care facilities.
objectiveWe aimed to characterize the demographic and work attributes of the workforce and to understand levels of burnout and the relationship between workload and job satisfaction.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional survey of individuals participating in hospitalist programs in BC.
resultsAlmost all individuals (96%) were involved in the care of patients with COVID-19 in 2021, the height of the pandemic. High rates of burnout were demonstrated among hospitalists, with a large number of providers planning to significantly reduce or stop their involvement in acute care. Regression analysis identified workload as an important factor associated with burnout. Older physicians, those who had been practising for longer, and those with moderate to high number of shifts were more likely to consider reducing their involvement with their programs.
conclusionsHigh levels of burnout are associated with a desire to reduce work involvement among BC hospitalists. Health system leaders need to consider factors contributing to burnout as a key aspect of broader health human resource planning efforts.
