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
backgroundMedical residents are among the most vulnerable healthcare workers making their job satisfaction a critical factor influencing mental health, quality of care, and retention. This study examines how resilience and perfectionism are associated with job satisfaction among Croatian medical residents, with particular attention to perfectionism's mediating role in these relationships.
methodsIn a cross-sectional study, 148 residents (79.1% female; median age 30 years, IQR 29-32) completed an online survey between April and May 2024. Snowball sampling was conducted via closed social media groups for residents. Instruments included validated Croatian versions of the Brief Resilience Scale, the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, and the Index of Job Satisfaction.
resultsParticipants were most frequently in their third year of training (Md = 3, IQR = 2-4); the most common specialty was anesthesiology (n = 17). Concern about mistakes, a maladaptive dimension of perfectionism, was negatively correlated with resilience (r = -0.476, p < 0.001) and job satisfaction (r = -0.375, p < 0.001). Regression analysis identified concern about mistakes as the sole predictor of job satisfaction (adjusted R
conclusionsThis study found that concern about mistakes, a maladaptive form of perfectionism, mediated the relationship between resilience and job satisfaction among Croatian medical residents. Other perfectionism dimensions were not significant predictors. These findings highlight maladaptive perfectionism as a key factor influencing resident resilience and job satisfaction.
