Effects of traditional music therapy on the psycho-neuro-immuno-endocrine aspect of burnout syndrome in healthcare workers: A randomized controlled trial.

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
Burnout syndrome (BOS) is an occupational phenomenon highly prevalent among healthcare workers, particularly physicians and nurses. Despite its prevalence, no single therapy universally addresses all cases of BOS. The aim of this study was to develop a novel approach to managing BOS through traditional music therapy, evaluated from psychosomatic, neurological, immunological, and endocrine perspectives. The study involved 80 participants who were randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group received traditional music therapy for 10-15 minutes, three times a week, over four weeks. Key outcomes were assessed at weeks 2 and 4. Measurements included the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), heart rate variability (HRV), saliva cortisol, saliva β-endorphin, saliva immunoglobulin A (IgA), and serum FOXP3. Instruments included the MBI-HSS questionnaire and HRV measuring devices. Over four weeks, significant improvements were observed in the MBI scores (
