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

Objective: To explore the chain mediating role of occupational coping self-efficacy and depression in the mechanism of nurses' perceived social support on turnover intention. Methods: A convenience sample of 390 nurses from five general hospitals was surveyed from April-June 2024 using the General Information Questionnaire, the perceived social support scale, the occupational coping self-efficacy scale, the depression scale, and the turnover intention scale to construct and validate the chain mediated effects model. Results: The results of this study showed that nurses' turnover intention scored (13.38 ± 4.83), perceived social support scored (70.25 ± 11.55), occupational coping self-efficacy scored (37.22 ± 5.45), and depression scored 6 (3.00, 11.00). The direct effect of perceived social support on nurses' turnover intention their jobs was significant with an effect value of -0.1793; occupational coping self-efficacy and depression as separate mediating effects and chain mediating effects of both were - 0.0281, -0.0343, and - 0.0474, respectively. Conclusion: Nurses' turnover intention is at a high level, and the chain-mediated effects of occupational coping self-efficacy and depression in the mechanism of nurses' perceived social support on their turnover intention are established. Managers should pay attention to nurses with high turnover intention, increase their level of perceived social support, promote their occupational coping self-efficacy, and reduce their depression to further reduce their turnover intention and enable them to actively engage in their work.
