The relationship between person-vocation fit and burnout among resident physicians: A single-center cross-sectional survey.
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 3 papers.
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
backgroundBurnout among resident physicians affects their physical and mental health as well as the quality of healthcare. Person-Vocation Fit (P-V Fit) may play a key role in preventing burnout. This study aims to explore the relationship between P-V Fit and burnout among resident physicians.
methodA cross-sectional survey was conducted, including demographic information, work factors, burnout assessment using the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS), and the Person-Vocation Fit (P-V Fit) scale. Data were analyzed using logistic and linear regression with SPSS-27.
results636 resident physicians (response rate 80%) participated in the survey. The mean age was 25.6 ± 2.3 years, 52.5% were male, 90.6% were unmarried, and 55.7% had a bachelor's degree. The overall burnout rate was 46.07%, with mean scores for emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment of 30.5 ± 11.9, 12.9 ± 7.4, and 28.5 ± 9.6, respectively. For each one-point increase in the P-V Fit score, the overall likelihood of burnout decreased by 19% (OR, 0.81;95%CI, 0.76-0.87;P < 0.001), emotional exhaustion decreased by 0.85 points (95%CI, -1.10 to -0.59), depersonalization decreased by 0.55 points (95%CI, -0.73 to -0.38), and personal accomplishment increased by 1.34 points (95%CI, 1.12-1.56)(all P < 0.001). For each additional hour of work, the risk of burnout increased by 33% (OR, 1.33;95%CI, 1.12-1.59;P = 0.001).
conclusionImproving Person-Vocation Fit is an effective strategy for preventing burnout among resident physicians. Residency training should focus on vocational compatibility assessment, develop differentiated support strategies, and arrange reasonable workloads.
