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
Religious involvement promotes employee virtues and encourages prosocial behavior in the workplace. There is no research about the preventive role of religion regarding dark-triad personality traits as antecedents of antisocial behavior at work. This study verified the mechanisms underpinning the relationship between religious practices and egoism at work, focusing on the mediating role of the dark triad and the moderating roles of perception of a relationship with God and an instrumental ethical climate. It was hypothesized that among Polish employees, according to relational spirituality, religious practices have a negative effect on dark-triad personality traits only in group with the most positive perception of a bond with God. It was also hypothesized that, consistent with the concept of trait activation, an instrumental ethical climate in turn strengthens the positive effect of dark-triad personality traits on egoism at work. In the cross-sectional study participated 434 employees from Poland. Consistent with the relational spirituality approach and concept of trait activation, the preventive role of the interactive effect of prayer and perception of a relationship with God for dark triad was confirmed the same as the moderating function of an instrumental ethical climate in the relationship between psychopathy and egoism at work and Machiavellianism and egoism at work.
