Article in BMJ public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Introduction: The health workforce is a crucial component of the WHO Health System Framework and is vital for sustainable, high-quality service delivery. Job satisfaction and motivation are key factors influencing the retention and performance of health workers. This study aimed to assess job satisfaction and its associated factors among health workers working under the local government in the Chitwan District, focusing on sociodemographics, job characteristics and work motivation. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 219 health workers from 46 health facilities in the Chitwan district using a multistage sampling technique to include workers from various facility types and municipalities. Data were collected using a pretested, self-administered structured questionnaire and analysed with Statistical Product for Service Solutions V.22. Univariate, bivariate and logistic regression analyses were performed. Results: The study found that 76.3% of participants were satisfied with their jobs. Opportunities for advancement (adjusted OR (AOR): 3.61, 95% CI: 1.35 to 9.66), nature of work (AOR: 3.54, 95% CI: 1.16 to 10.84) and supportive supervision (AOR: 3.58, 95% CI: 1.25 to 10.27) were significantly associated with higher job satisfaction. Conclusion: Over three-quarters of health workers under local government were satisfied with their jobs. The study emphasises the significance of promoting supportive work environments, providing effective supervision and offering career development opportunities to enhance job satisfaction among health workers.
