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

Introduction: Nurses are the cornerstone of the healthcare system, playing a vital role in delivering consistent, high-quality patient care. However, working in high-stress environments such as hospitals and health clusters exposes them to ongoing well-being, emotional, and psychological challenges. If unaddressed, these factors can significantly compromise their mental health, subjective well-being, and self-efficacy, ultimately affecting workforce sustainability and patient outcomes. Aim: To assess the mental health, subjective well-being, and self-efficacy of the nursing workforce within the Qassim Health Cluster and identify individuals or groups at elevated risk. Methods: A cross-sectional correlational study was conducted with 306 nursing staff, recruited through convenience sampling. Data were collected via a standardized electronic survey administered between January to March 2025 across three hospitals in Buraydah city. The survey included the Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) to assess mental health, the WHO-5 Well-Being Index to measure subjective well-being, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE) to evaluate perceived self-efficacy. Results: The majority of participants were female, middle-aged, and holding a bachelor's degree and varying levels of work experience. Overall, nurses demonstrated moderate to high levels of mental health (65.26%), self-efficacy (58.64%), and subjective well-being (69.95%). Mean scores were 45.68 (±17.26) for mental health (MHC-SF), 30.98 (±5.70) for self-efficacy (GSE), and 14.66 (±6.17) for well-being (WHO-5). Significant positive correlations were observed among all variables: mental health was strongly correlated with self-efficacy ( Conclusion: Nurses' mental health, self-efficacy, and well-being are interrelated and critically impact the quality of patient care. Healthcare organizations should implement targeted interventions, particularly training and stress management programs to support the psychological and subjective health of nurses, with a focus on less experienced staff.
