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
objectivesDuring residency training, medical doctors, face significant challenges that can impact their quality of professional life, their performance, and the care they provide. The current study aimed to examine factors affecting the quality of professional life and their perception of bullying. DESIGN/
participantsThis was a cross-sectional study with 231 medical residents.
settingEducational hospitals affiliated with Iran University of Medical Sciences in Tehran, Iran.
methodsParticipants completed a questionnaire that included demographic data, the Negative Act Questionnaire-Revised (NAQ-R), and the Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQol-5). The study included 231 medical residents from medical university-affiliated hospitals.
resultsBullying had a significant negative effect on the quality of professional life (B = -1.173, p < 0.001), while satisfaction with income positively affected it (B = 2.111, p = 0.016). Gender, marital status, feeling respected, age, shift hours, residency year, and medical-surgical department were not significant predictors. Longer shift hours per week (B = 0.306, p = 0.044) and more experienced residents (B = -1.376, p = 0.010) were associated with higher and lower bullying perceptions, respectively.
conclusionsThe study highlights the significant negative impact of bullying on the quality of professional life among medical residents. Suitable interventions should be considered to reduce this impact. Potential interventions could include implementing comprehensive training programs focused on emotional intelligence and communication skills, establishing clear reporting mechanisms for bullying incidents, and fostering a supportive workplace culture prioritizing respect and collaboration among healthcare professionals.
