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
backgroundA skilled and diverse healthcare workforce is essential in nursing homes, yet recruitment and retention remain a major challenge. Gaining insight into the well-being of different care worker groups and how they perceive their work environment can highlight areas of concern and opportunities for improvement.
aimsTo compare the perceived work environment and well-being among different care worker groups in nursing homes.
methodsThis descriptive study used cross-sectional survey data from the Flanders Nursing Home (FLANH) project, collected from February-July 2023. A total of 1521 care workers from 25 Flemish nursing homes participated (64.4% response rate), including care assistants (43.7%), registered nurses (20.5%), support staff (15.4%), allied health professionals (14.8%), and team leaders (5.7%). Chi-squared tests were used to compare the percentages of the care worker groups reporting the work environment items and well-being outcomes (job satisfaction, intention to leave, burnout). Post hoc analyses were conducted to identify which groups contributed to the significant differences observed.
resultsSignificant differences among care worker groups were found for almost all work environment items and well-being outcomes. Staffing adequacy was perceived least among care assistants and registered nurses. More registered nurses and team leaders perceived high workload and emotional burden compared to the other groups. Work-life interference and involvement were perceived most among team leaders. A person-centered vision, work autonomy, and salary satisfaction were reported most among allied health professionals and team leaders. Skill use and training opportunities were reported least among support staff. Work-related well-being appeared to be experienced most among allied health professionals and least among care assistants. LINKING EVIDENCE TO ACTION: These findings highlight key differences in work environment perceptions and well-being among care worker groups, offering valuable insights for tailored initiatives to foster a supportive workplace that benefits the well-being of all types of care workers in nursing homes.
