Analysis of factors affecting fatigue in emergency medicine residents: A nationwide, cross-sectional, descriptive study.
Article in Turkish journal of emergency medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesEmergency physicians may experience intense fatigue and burnout due to factors related to occupational conditions. The group experiencing burnout most frequently among physicians is emergency medicine (EM) physicians, with 63%. They also endure high levels of fatigue. This study evaluated the fatigue levels and factors of fatigue in EM residents nationwide. It aimed to determine the factors affecting fatigue.
methodsThe study includes EM residents working across the country between January 2024 and April 2024. It was conducted using a survey. The survey included the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), the Chalder Fatigue Scale, and questions about demographic characteristics. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the data.
resultsThe median age of participants was 28 years (interquartile range = 3), and 203 (56.4%) were male. Factors affecting the level of fatigue were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. The gender (male) (odds ratio [OR] =0.322, 95% confidence interval [CI] =0.128-0.812) and the daily sleep duration (OR = 0.589, 95% CI = 0.423-0.822) variables had a negative effect on fatigue. Depression in medical history increased the likelihood of fatigue (OR = 3.515, 95% CI = 0.930-13.287). Emotional exhaustion (EE) (OR = 1.082, 95% CI = 1.037-1.130) and depersonalization (OR = 1.097, 95% CI = 1.015-1.186) increased the fatigue level. However, personal accomplishment had no significant effect on fatigue (OR = 1.019, 95% CI = 0.966-1.075).
conclusionsBeing female gender, having shorter daily sleep duration, having a diagnosis of depression in medical history, and having higher levels of depersonalization and EE from MBI subdimensions increase the level of fatigue. Optimizing the sleep duration of EM residents and supporting their psychological health will prevent fatigue and fatigue-related problems.
