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

Emphasizing the importance of psychological experiences in professional roles, this study explored the relationship between self-compassion and professional quality of life (ProQOL) among healthcare workers (HCWs). Sociodemographic characteristics, depressive symptoms, self-compassion, and ProQOL were assessed by conducting an online survey with 371 HCWs on coronavirus disease 2019 dedicated teams. Our findings indicate that self-compassion contributes to a better ProQOL, enhancing compassion satisfaction while reducing burnout and secondary traumatic stress, even when controlling depressive symptoms. These results have important implications fostering self-compassion interventions for a better ProQOL in HCWs.
