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
introductionPoor emotional intelligence (EI) among healthcare leaders resulted in ineffective communication and collaboration, misunderstandings and conflicts with team members, poor decision-making process, increased stress and burnout, reduced patient satisfaction and, decreased team performance. Thus, this study is aimed to assess EI and associated factors among case team leaders in the public health centers of East Gojam Zone, Northwest Ethiopia.
methodAn institution-based cross-sectional study was performed in the East Gojam Zone among 395 case team leaders selected by a simple random sampling method. EI was measured with 40 five-point Likert items. A structured self-administered questionnaire was used to collect the data. Data was entered into Epi-Data version 4.6 and exported further into STATA version 14.0 for analysis. Multi-variable binary logistic regression model was employed to determine factors associated with EI, and statistical significance was detected with P-value < 0.05 and 95% CI.
resultEI among case team leaders was low among 180 (45.6%), and high 215 (54.4%). Factors associated with EI were age with 35-39 years old [AOR = 1.21; 95% CI: (1.03-1.65)], training on EI [AOR = 1.50; 95% CI: (1.35-1.69)], 4-6 years of working experience [AOR = 1.19; 95% CI: (1.15-1.54)] & greater or equal to six years [AOR = 1.48; 95% CI: (1.36-1.59)], those who have Master and above educational status [AOR = 1.32; 95% CI: (1.18-1.75)], having stressor in the last six months [AOR = 0.75; 95% CI: (0.32-0.98)]. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: This study evidenced that larger proportion of case team leaders in the health centers of East Gojam Zone had high EI. Those case team leaders with the age of 35-39 years old, Master degree holders, trained on EI, hadn't history of stressor in the last six months, and those who had working experience of above four years were identified as having high EI in the study area. Training on EI and stress management in the clinical setting should also be deliberated in the prospect policies.
