1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundHuman resources are the critical element of organizations and serve as the economic engine of countries. Human resources play a crucial role in gaining competitive advantage. This study aimed to examine the impact of good governance on organizational health, with organizational accountability as a mediating factor, among employees of hospitals in Qazvin, Iran.

methodsThis analytical, applied research used a descriptive design and was conducted in selected hospitals in Qazvin in 2023. Data were collected from hospital staff who evaluated their hospitals’ organizational attributes, including good governance, organizational health, and accountability. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Standard questionnaires, including Singh and Jha’s (2018) Organizational Health, Moghimi and Ramazan’s (2011) Good Governance, and Jansen (2001) Organizational Accountability were used for data collection. To analyze the data and test the hypotheses, Pearson correlation coefficients were employed. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed for data analysis.

resultsThe findings indicated that good governance directly affects organizational health and organizational accountability. Scores for good governance, organizational health, and organizational accountability in Qazvin hospitals were satisfactory. Good governance scores were higher among personnel with fixed shifts, contract staff, those with high school diplomas or lower education, educational groups and married personnel.

conclusionBased on the study results, hospital managers can enhance organizational health by improving governance and accountability. Further nationwide studies on the impact of organizational accountability on organizational health are recommended. To further advance the understanding of organizational health, future research should explore several key avenues.
