Factors associated with burnout among Chinese operating room nurses: a meta-analysis.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundBurnout is prevalent among nursing staff, especially in the operating room, which is a high-intensity, high-pressure and fast-paced work environment. As the prevalence of nurse burnout increases, reducing the burnout of operating room nurses helps to improve the physical and mental health of nurses. Thus, stabilising the nursing team can also guarantee the quality of medical care, which in turn improves patient satisfaction. In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis based on the Pearson correlation coefficient to quantitatively analyse the factors related to burnout among operating room nurses and to provide a reliable basis for preventing and intervening in burnout among operating room nurses.
methodsCNKI, Wanfang Database, Wipro Database, China Biomedical Database, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CINAHL and Cochrane Library Database were searched, and the keywords 'operating room', 'nurses', 'burnout' and the corresponding English terms were used for the search. The time limit for the search was set from the creation of the databases to April 2024. Two researchers with evidence-based knowledge conducted the search, independently screened the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted the information and assessed the quality of the included literature using the quality assessment criteria for observational studies recommended by the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research, and performed a meta-analysis of the literature using the r value as an indicator of the outcome in RevMan 5.4 software.
resultsA total of 25 papers were included, with a sample size of 6,061 cases. The quality of the literature was moderate. The meta-analysis showed that job stress (r = 0.56, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.42-0.68, I CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATION: This study shows that burnout of operating room nurses is related to various factors, such as job stress, social support, work-family conflict, psychological capital and well-being. Therefore, it is suggested that hospital management should alleviate the burnout of operating room nurses from the multi-dimensional aspects of improving the work environment, enhancing social support and improving personal psychological capital and well-being to effectively alleviate burnout.
