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
Background and Aims: As first responders to accidents and disasters, prehospital emergency personnel encounter psychological crises and mental stressors like death anxiety and job burnout. The present study aimed to investigate death anxiety, resilience, and job burnout in prehospital emergency personnel. Methods: This investigation employed a descriptive, cross-sectional, observational, and multi-centric study design. The research population encompassed prehospital emergency personnel affiliated with three universities of medical sciences in Fars Province, Southern Iran. A convenience sampling technique yielded a participant pool of 417 prehospital emergency personnel. Data was gathered using the Templer Death Anxiety Scale, Prehospital Emergency Personnel Resilience Scale and Maslach Burnout Inventory. Data were analyzed in SPSS-26 through descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, Pearson coefficient, and multiple linear regression. The significance level was set at Results: The mean score for job burnout was 61.36 (SD ± 36.76), while the mean score for death anxiety was 99.5 (SD ± 94.10). These scores can be interpreted as indicative of high levels of both job burnout and death anxiety. Conversely, the mean resilience score of 96.37 (SD ± 77.06) suggests moderate resilience within the sample population. The findings revealed an inverse correlation between resilience and job burnout ( Conclusion: While the present study revealed high levels of death anxiety and job burnout among prehospital personnel, it also found their resilience to be moderate. Senior managers in prehospital emergency services should prioritize strategies to improve cognitive abilities, particularly resilience. By doing so, they can not only enhance employee well-being but also potentially reduce job burnout and death anxiety.
