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

Background: Occupational burnout is prevalent among doctors and nurses. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of ICU doctors and nurses regarding occupational burnout. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2023 and June 2024 at the Zhejiang Medical & Health Group Hangzhou Hospital in Zhejiang Province. Demographic information and KAP scores were collected through distributed questionnaires. Occupational burnout was measured by the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS). Results: This study included 105 doctors and 165 nurses, with an average age of 32.23 ± 7.38 years. Among all the participants, 6 (2.22%) reported no occupational burnout, 230 (85.19%) experienced moderate occupational burnout, and 34 (12.59%) reported severe occupational burnout. The mean knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 9.64 ± 4.21 (possible range: 0-18), 29.01 ± 3.15 (possible range: 7-35), and 16.96 ± 4.29 (possible range: 6-30), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that a higher knowledge score was independently associated with more proactive practice (OR = 1.33, 95% CI: [1.18, 1.50], Conclusion: Most ICU doctors and nurses exhibited moderate occupational burnout, with insufficient knowledge, positive attitude, and moderate practice toward occupational burnout. Implementing strategies to increase knowledge and promote active practical engagement is essential to effectively mitigate occupational burnout among ICU staff.
