Article in Revista brasileira de enfermagem, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesto assess the level of compassion fatigue in healthcare professionals working in emergency services and its association with socio-professional characteristics.
methodscross-sectional research, carried out in 2022 and 2023, with 186 healthcare workers. A socio-occupational questionnaire and the Professional Quality of Life Scale 5 were used.
resultshigher averages of satisfaction with compassion were evidenced, followed by burnout syndrome and Secondary Traumatic Stress. Age and number of children were related to satisfaction with compassion. These variables and years of experience in the health field were inversely correlated with burnout scores. Furthermore, the higher the level of education, the lower the scores for Secondary Traumatic Stress.
conclusionscompassion satisfaction provides protection for most study participants, and it is important to invest in it to avoid compassion fatigue in this scenario.
