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.

methodsThis descriptive-correlational study was conducted on 143 employed midwives in maternity wards of government and private hospitals, as well as healthcare centers in Iran. The data were collected using demographic fertility characteristics, EI, and job satisfaction questionnaires. For the assessment of EI, Bar-On's Emotional Intelligence questionnaire was used which consists of 90 items. For the assessment of job satisfaction, Herzberg's Job Satisfaction Questionnaire was used, which consists of 72 items. The significance level of the tests was considered to be
resultsThe results of the study showed that the mean EI and job satisfaction of midwives were moderate (316.57 ± 33.64 and 278.58 ± 25.95, respectively). According to Pearson correlation coefficients, there was a significant positive correlation between total job satisfaction and total EI scores (r = 0.356,
conclusionThis study showed that high EI enhances midwives' job satisfaction. Therefore, midwifery managers should create conditions that help enhance the EI and satisfaction of midwives.
