Workplace Violence Against Nurses and Its Association With Mental Health and Turnover Intention: A National Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of nursing management, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Hospital workplace violence is a significant global public health concern, impacting nurses' mental well-being and their likelihood of leaving their jobs. Previous research explored the associations between workplace violence, mental health, and turnover intention among nurses, which yielded inconsistent results due to smaller sample sizes, thus highlighting the need for a more comprehensive investigation with a large sample of a representative population. This study, drawing on a large dataset of 116,345 nurses from 67 tertiary hospitals across 31 provinces in China, aimed to assess the relationship between workplace violence and nurses' mental health and turnover intentions between October and December 2023. Data were analyzed using multilevel regression models. The study assessed the varying levels of workplace violence (low, moderate, and high), mental health outcomes, and turnover intention. The study found that a substantial number of nurses, 30,987 (26.6%), experienced workplace violence in the year prior to the survey, with varying levels of severity. Specifically, 27,225 (23.4%) encountered low-level violence, 3519 (3%) moderate violence, and 243 (0.2%) high-level violence. After controlling for sociodemographic and work-related variables, workplace violence was significantly associated with depressive symptoms (
