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
objectiveThe relationship between relational job characteristics, subjective well-being, and turnover intention among clinical nurses remains insufficiently understood. This study examines these associations to inform nursing management strategies and and reduce turnover rates.
methodsA cross-sectional survey of 1013 clinical nurses was conducted using questionnaires to assess relational job characteristics, subjective well-being, and turnover intention. Correlation analyses, multiple stepwise regression, and structural equation modeling were employed to examine the interrelationships among these variables. The study adhered to the STROBE checklist.
resultsThe findings indicated that turnover intention among nurses was generally at a moderately high level. Turnover intention was negatively associated with relational job characteristics and subjective well-being, while relational job characteristics had a positive direct association with subjective well-being. Furthermore, factors influencing turnover intention included relational job characteristics, subjective well-being, hospital department, and employment type. Structural equation modeling analysis revealed that subjective well-being served as a mediating factor in the relationship between relational job characteristics and turnover intention.
conclusionOur findings highlight the important mediating role of subjective well-being in the relationship between nurses' relational job characteristics and turnover intention. Specifically, strengthening these characteristics can enhance nurses' well-being while reducing turnover intention. To support nursing administrators and educators should implement targeted interventions that foster relational job characteristics, thereby improving well-being and simultaneously mitigating turnover intention. Such initiatives hold significant potential for enhancing the stability and continuity of the nursing workforce.
