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
Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between psychological contract and turnover intention among hospital healthcare assistants. Design: A multi-center cross-sectional analysis was employed in this study. Methods: A survey was conducted among healthcare assistants employed at 10 Grade A tertiary hospitals in Fuzhou using a psychological contract scale, turnover intention scale, and demographic questionnaire. Results: A total of 540 healthcare assistants participated in the study. The turnover intention scores varied from 6 to 22, with an average score of 11.51 ± 3.54. The number of individuals with a very low turnover intention amounts to 40 (7.40%), those with a low turnover intention total 302 (55.93%), individuals with moderate turnover intention numbered 195 (36.11%), and those with a high turnover intention are 3 (0.56%).The psychological contract scores among healthcare assistants ranged from 42 to 195, with an average score of 153.90 ± 33.18. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis was performed and psychological contract increased the explanatory power of the turnover intention regression model by 38.4%. Conclusion: Maintaining a high level of psychological contract is beneficial for reducing the turnover intention of healthcare assistants. Hospital managers can adopt certain measures from the perspective of psychological contract to stabilize the team of healthcare assistants.
