1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: To (1) assess rates of burnout in Fellows of the American Academy of Optometry and (2) assess associations among perceptions of workplace wellness support with lifestyle behaviors and health and wellness indicators (ie, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, mattering to the workplace, and workplace is not stressful). Methods: A survey collected sample characteristics and outcomes of interest from 321 Fellows. Results: Thirty-two percent reported burnout. Females and those working in academia were significantly more likely to report being burned out at work. Compared to Fellows with low perceptions of workplace wellness support, Fellows with high perceptions of support were significantly more likely to report mattering to their workplace, a non-stressful workplace environment, and no burnout. Conclusion: Promoting workplace wellness support may improve perceptions of mattering, stressful workplace environments, and rates of self-reported burnout in optometrists.
