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

backgroundTo investigate the relationship between mindfulness and burnout in physicians and its underlying mechanisms.

methodsStudy 1 employed a multiverse-style analysis based on a large sample of 8,462 physicians to examine the robust relationship between mindfulness(MAAS) and burnout(MBIES). Study 2 conducted a 21-day intensive longitudinal assessment on 471 physicians to explore the internal mechanisms by which mindfulness affects burnout.

resultsStudy 1 found that the negative association between mindfulness and burnout is robust. Study 2 discovered that Perceived Organizational Support(POS) and Psychological Safety(PS) play a sequential mediating role in the effect of mindfulness on burnout.

conclusionsThese findings provide a theoretical basis for formulating interventions at the organizational level and have important practical and theoretical significance for optimizing physicians' work environments and improving the medical quality. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
