1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundBurnout is an increasing concern in oncology, with significant implications for staff well-being and the quality of care delivery. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of burnout among oncology healthcare professionals in Morocco, primarily nurses and technicians, and to identify associated sociodemographic and occupational factors. MATERIALS AND

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted from September to December 2024 at the National Institute of Oncology in Rabat. Ninety-one healthcare professionals completed the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS). Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to explore the interrelationships among the three burnout dimensions.

resultsSevere burnout was identified in 61.5% of participants. Emotional exhaustion was the most affected dimension (70.4% moderate or high), followed by depersonalization (57.1%). While 50.5% reported high levels of personal accomplishment, 24.2% reported low fulfillment. Higher levels of burnout were associated with younger age, female gender, nursing roles, and night shift work. SEM analysis confirmed the central role of emotional exhaustion in predicting both increased depersonalization (β = 0.524, DISCUSSION AND

conclusionBurnout is highly prevalent among oncology healthcare professionals in Morocco, particularly among young female nurses. Key contributing factors include age, gender, level of seniority, and shift schedules. Participants emphasized the importance of reducing workload, improving working conditions, adjusting salaries, and promoting continuing education. Institutional interventions are urgently needed to address burnout and protect healthcare worker well-being.
