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
Aim: To examine the impact of emotion-focused human resource management (EFHRM) on compassionate care behavior (CCB) among nursing staff, and to explore the mediating role of emotional labor and the moderating effect of public service motivation. Background: CCB-nurses' empathetic and patient-centered actions that meet patients' emotional and physical needs-is essential for high-quality nursing care. However, its organizational antecedents remain underexplored. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 272 nurses in hospital settings. EFHRM was assessed as a set of HR practices aimed at recognizing, supporting, and regulating employees' emotional needs and interpersonal sensitivities. Structural equation modeling was used to test the hypothesized relationships. Results: EFHRM has a significant and positive effect on nurses' CCB. Emotional labor partially mediated this relationship, indicating that HR practices addressing emotional needs enhance CCB by promoting emotionally engaged work. Moreover, public service motivation significantly moderated the mediation effect: nurses with higher levels of public service motivation were more likely to translate emotional labor into CCB. These results underscore both the psychological mechanisms and contextual factors that influence compassionate care delivery. Conclusions: The findings highlight the importance of EFHRM practices that are sensitive to the emotional dynamics of caregiving. EFHRM not only facilitates the emotional conditions necessary for CCB but also interacts with intrinsic motivational traits to enhance care quality. Understanding these processes offers valuable insights for healthcare organizations aiming to promote sustained, patient-centered care. Implications for Nursing Management: Organizations should adopt EFHRM strategies to create supportive emotional climates and cultivate compassionate care. Attention to both emotional labor and public service motivation can strengthen workforce resilience and patient outcomes in demanding care environments.
