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

Background: Burnout syndrome refers to a state of physical or extreme emotional exhaustion, a negative and cynical attitude toward patients, a diminished sense of personal achievement, and depersonalization, often resulting from prolonged and unmanaged workplace stress. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the magnitude and associated factors of burnout syndrome among healthcare professionals working in intensive care units. Methods: A multicenter, institution-based, cross-sectional study was conducted from July 1, 2023 to August 30, 2023, involving 529 healthcare professionals. A systematic random sampling method was used to select participants. The standardized Maslach Burnout Inventory questionnaire was employed to collect the data. The data were reviewed, coded, and entered into Epi Info version 7.0, then transferred to SPSS version 26 for analysis. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression models were used to identify factors associated with burnout syndrome. A Results: The prevalence of burnout syndrome among healthcare workers in the intensive care unit was 28.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 25.1-33.1). Factors such as being over 40 years old (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 2.82; 95% CI: 1.23-6.46), having 5 to 10 years of work experience (AOR: 4.81; 95% CI: 2.92-7.92), exceeding 10 years of work experience (AOR: 3.96; 95% CI: 1.67-9.39), working more than 8 h per day (AOR: 2.51; 95% CI: 1.34-2.71), and substance use (AOR: 2.52; 95% CI: 1.08-5.86) showed statistically significant associations with burnout syndrome in a binary logistic regression model. Conclusion and Recommendations: Burnout syndrome is very common among healthcare workers in intensive care units. Therefore, healthcare facilities and policymakers need to recognize its impact on their staff's wellbeing. Implementing measures like regular mental health support, staff rotation, and efficient workload management can significantly reduce burnout and enhance the overall quality of patient care in these high-stress environments.
