Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPublic health graduates play a crucial role in disease prevention, yet China is experiencing significant workforce attrition. Jiangxi Province illustrates this problem, with a public health workforce density of 7.31 per 10,000 population, which falls short of national standards, and ongoing difficulties in recruitment and retention. This study explores turnover intention and its predictors among public health graduates in Jiangxi to provide evidence for improving retention strategies.
methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted among 546 graduates, yielding a 91% response rate, using convenience sampling. Multivariable logistic regression and structural equation modeling (SEM) were applied to identify predictors of turnover intention and psychological contract dimensions.
resultsFactors associated with lower turnover intention included being older than 30 years (OR = 0.169), holding senior professional titles (OR = 0.131), working in administrative roles (OR = 0.157), and having permanent employment status (OR = 0.265). SEM analysis showed that all dimensions of the psychological contract (normative, developmental, and relational) were negatively associated with turnover intention, with relational contracts exerting the strongest influence (β = -0.620).
conclusionStrengthening job stability through measures such as career advancement opportunities and fulfillment of psychological contracts is essential for retaining public health professionals in under-resourced provinces like Jiangxi.
