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
Aims: This study examined the relationship between professional autonomy (PA) and organizational commitment (OC), with job satisfaction (JS) as a mediating factor among nurses employed in intensive care units (ICUs). Background: Previous research has established a link between nurses' PA and OC, but the mediating role of JS remains underexplored. Addressing this gap effectively is essential for improving nursing care outcomes and providing novel insights into how autonomy shapes commitment through JS. Methods: This descriptive-correlational study used structural equation modeling (SEM). A total of 420 ICU nurses were selected through quota sampling from Urmia educational hospitals in Iran from October 2022 to June 2023. Data were collected using a demographic survey questionnaire and Persian versions of the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ), Porter Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (P-OCQ), and Varjus Professional Autonomy Scale (V-PAS). Data were analyzed using SPSS version 23.0 and SmartPLS version 3.0. Results: Out of 420 participants, 385 fully completed the questionnaires (response rate: 92%). PA had a positive, weak direct association with OC ( Conclusion: PA was positively associated with OC among ICU nurses, with JS acting as a mediator. Enhancing both PA and JS is critical for improving nurses' commitment, leading to better quality care and patient safety. Implications for Nursing Management: Healthcare managers can empower nurses by involving them in patient care decision-making and supporting their independent decisions. Training to update nursing knowledge can expand their decision-making scope. Providing stress reduction programs, managing workloads, addressing nursing shortages, and offering financial and moral support can boost JS and OC.
