Evaluation of Pharmacy Resident Burnout Based on Weekend Residency Staffing Requirements: A Pilot Study.

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
Research surrounding impacts of staffing on pharmacy residents is limited. This prospective survey study aims to elucidate relationships between burnout and weekends staffed among California pharmacy residents. Postgraduate year 1 and 2 (PGY1 and PGY2) pharmacy residents completed electronic surveys in August 2023 and February 2024. The primary outcome was the difference in burnout score changes based on weekends required to staff (measured using the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey for Medical Personnel). Secondary subgroup analyses measured differences in burnout scores by the overall cohort, no weekend staffing vs. weekend staffing required, PGY1 vs. PGY2, and by changes in planned professional pursuits. Of 66 respondents, no significant differences in burnout scores were observed based on the number of weekends required to staff. Final mean emotional exhaustion (EE), but not depersonalization (DP) or personal accomplishment (PA), scores were significantly higher for all residents combined, increasing from 24.8 (SD 10.2) to 28.4 (SD 11.5). Final mean EE scores were also significantly higher among PGY2s compared to PGY1s, at 35.1 (SD 0.70) vs. 25.8 (SD 12.0), respectively. Final mean burnout scores were significantly worse in those becoming less likely to pursue board specialty certification across all domains, with EE = 32.6 (SD 6.50), DP = 4.29 (4.79), and PA = 36.3 (SD 3.21). Based on these results, staffing intensity alone may not be associated with burnout among California pharmacy residents, but PGY2 pharmacy residents may be at higher risk of burnout. Higher burnout scores may predict the likelihood of pursuing board specialty certification. Future studies assessing additional confounding factors with a broader scope are needed to fully define risk factors for burnout in pharmacy residents.
