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
backgroundWorkplace (WPW) violence is a significant issue among healthcare workers (HCWs) in hospitals and negatively impacts the healthcare workforce. WPW can have more severe consequences, especially in tertiary hospitals with a concentrated, specialised workforce. In this regard, the study aimed to identify the dynamics of workplace violence exposure among HCWs in a tertiary hospital. It also investigated its impact on job engagement.
methodsThe study was designed as a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted between June and September 2023. The study involved 3,526 HCWs at a tertiary hospital in Turkey, all invited, with 390 participating. The study examined healthcare workers' ability to handle WPV. It also examined their exposure to violence, their perception of safety against violence at work, and their engagement in their jobs.
resultsExposure to WPV among HCWs included in the study significantly predicts job engagement, with a negative relationship (β: -0.473). Additionally, as HCWs' skills in managing WPV increase, job engagement also increases (β: -0.279). Among younger and less experienced HCWs, WPV exposure and job engagement scores were significantly lower (p<0.05).
conclusionsWPV, common among health workers, is an essential factor that reduces work engagement. Identifying and controlling the dynamics of WPV is critical to enhancing job engagement among healthcare workers and preventing related adverse outcomes.
