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

Burnout among midwives is a critical issue influenced by organisational and work environment factors, potentially impacting job satisfaction and overall well-being. Workplace conditions and organisational support play a crucial role in determining job satisfaction and burnout levels in healthcare professionals, particularly midwives. Understanding these relationships can inform strategies to enhance job satisfaction and reduce burnout. This study aimed to examine the relationships between organisational factors, work environment and burnout among Jordanian midwives, with job satisfaction as a mediating factor. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 182 midwives employed in Ministry of Health hospitals. Data were collected using a sociodemographic questionnaire, the McCloskey/Mueller Satisfaction Scale (MMSS), the Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index (PES-NWI), the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) and the McCain and Marklin Social Integration (MMSI) Scale. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was used to test the proposed conceptual model. Results showed that 45.1% of midwives experienced high burnout, while 52.2% reported moderate burnout. SEM analysis indicated a direct association between burnout and coworker and supervisor support (β = - 0.18; p < 0.001), experience (β = 0.38; p < 0.001) and marital status (β = 0.38; p ≤ 0.001). The work area had an indirect effect on burnout (β = - 0.23; p < 0.001). Job satisfaction mediated the relationships between work environment, coworker and supervisor support and demographic factors, highlighting its role in reducing burnout. Enhancing workplace conditions and fostering supportive professional relationships may improve job satisfaction and mitigate burnout among midwives.
