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

This study examined differences in emotional exhaustion (EE) among nurses working in operating rooms (ORs) and general wards (GWs) at a regional teaching hospital in Taiwan. A total of 263 nurses completed the EE subscale of the Chinese Safety Attitudes Questionnaire (CSAQ). Results showed that OR nurses consistently reported significantly higher EE levels than GW nurses, especially regarding fatigue, emotional depletion, and interpersonal strain. Among GW nurses, older and mid-career individuals exhibited significantly higher EE scores, suggesting an age-related cumulative burden. Independent samples
