The relationship between rumination and job fatigue in pre-hospital emergency personnel: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC emergency medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThis study examines the relationship between rumination and job Fatigue among pre-hospital emergency personnel in Ardabil Province, as well as the role of demographic and occupational factors in shaping these outcomes.
methodsThis cross-sectional descriptive study included 338 pre-hospital emergency personnel from Ardabil Province, selected through census sampling. Data were collected using the Nolen-Hoeksema and Morrow Rumination Questionnaire, which measures general rumination, and the Swedish Job Fatigue Inventory to assess Job fatigue. Descriptive statistics, t-tests, and ANOVA were performed using SPSS software.
resultsThe mean total score for job fatigue was 93.14 ± 10.32, while the mean score for rumination was 53.12 ± 10.34, both indicating moderate levels. Significant correlations were found between job fatigue and demographic or occupational factors such as age (p = 0.02), work experience (p < 0.001), workplace (p < 0.001), and shift type (p < 0.001). Regarding rumination, significant associations were also observed with age (p = 0.03), work experience (p < 0.001), and workplace (p < 0.001). Additionally, shift type showed a significant relationship with rumination (p < 0.001).
conclusionsDemographic and job-related factors, including age, work experience, workplace, and shift type, significantly affect the levels of rumination and job fatigue in pre-hospital emergency personnel. Implementing targeted support programs and optimizing shift management may help reduce psychological strain in this workforce. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
