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
Emergency department nurses are frequently exposed to high-intensity, traumatic events, placing them at increased risk of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The current study investigated correlations between PTSD, career resilience, and perceived organizational support in emergency department nurses at tertiary hospitals. The study was cross-sectional, and conducted using a general information questionnaire, the PTSD self-rating scale, the career resilience scale, and the perceived organizational support scale, distributed to a convenience sample of emergency department nurses from tertiary comprehensive hospitals in Wuxi and Suzhou. A total of 224 questionnaires were distributed, with 213 valid responses (response rate 95.1%). The mean PTSD score was 46.67 ± 7.27, and 29.11% of participants met the threshold for PTSD symptoms. PTSD was negatively correlated with career resilience and perceived organizational support (p < 0.05). In multiple regression analysis self-confidence, self-dependence, emotional support, and instrumental support were significant predictors of PTSD. The study highlighted relationships between career resilience, perceived organizational support, and PTSD symptoms. Hospitals should implement resilience-building and organizational support initiatives focused on enhancing occupational resilience and emotional support mechanisms. Strengthening these factors may improve mental health outcomes and contribute to the long-term sustainability of high-stress clinical environments such as emergency departments.
