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
Counselors are professionals who provide guidance and psychological counseling services in places such as educational institutions and guidance and research centers. The main purpose of this cross-sectional quantitative study was to investigate the relationship between compassion fatigue (CF) and compassion satisfaction (CS) among Turkish counselors and the moderating role of self-compassion in this relationship. A sample of 367 counselors (mean age 36.56 years: 52% female) completed an online survey including measures. Pearson correlation and moderation analyses were conducted. CF and CS were significantly related to each other (r = - .77), while self-compassion and CF were highly negatively correlated (r = - .68). Furthermore, a significant positive relationship was found between self-compassion and CS (r = .70). The analysis revealed that self-compassion moderated the relationship between CF and CS. The present results suggest that self-compassion may act as a protective factor against the effects of CF. However, the cross-sectional design limits causal interpretations, and self-report measures may be subject to response biases. Future research should consider longitudinal designs and explore intervention strategies to enhance self-compassion among counselors.
