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

Job burnout is widely associated with health professionals' mental and physical health, social functions, and career development. Psychological questionnaires are well-established and widely applied in assessing burnout syndromes in medical settings, for example, the Maslach burnout inventory-human services survey (MBI-HSS). Granted its long format and inconsistent psychometric performances, little is known about the core syndromes of in MBI-HSS, therefore, this study adopted a network analysis to address this research gap. The purpose of this study was to revisit the psychometric performance of the MBI-HSS and to explore its core features in Chinese healthcare settings. All staffs (1925 in total) of a local comprehensive hospital were invited to respond to a battery of surveys containing the translated Chinese MBI-HSS, and demographic and occupational characteristics. The original sample (n = 1196; response rate = 62.13%) was randomly divided into two subgroups by assigning random numbers (0 vs. 1). The first subgroup (n
