Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAccording to the broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions, well-being is a protective factor against emotional labor. However, it is unclear whether and how well-being contributes to emotional labor for preschool teachers. To investigate the influence of well-being on emotional labor, this study aimed to examine the mediating effect of career commitment between preschool teachers' well-being and emotional labor and whether this effect is moderated by social support.
methodThis study included 363 preschool teachers (M = 30.17 years, SD = 5.94) in a Chinese province. All participants completed the General Well-Being Schedule, the Emotional Labor Strategy, the Career Commitment Scale, and the Social Support Rating Scale. The data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0.
resultsCorrelation analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between well-being, career commitment, social support, and emotional labor. The results of path analysis show that career commitment plays a completely mediating role in the relationship between well-being and emotional labor, which is moderated by social support. The mediating effect of career commitment was significantly greater for individuals with high social support than for those with low social support.
conclusionWell-being can promote the emotional labor of preschool teachers by bolstering career commitment, while this process is influenced by social support.
