1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

BACKGROUND &

aimsOrganizational climate is recognized as a key factor in enhancing performance and retaining the workforce. Retaining operational staff in emergency medical centers is vital for improving service quality and reducing the costs associated with job turnover. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between organizational climate and Employee retention tendency of operational staff of the Accident and Emergency Medical Center of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences. MATERIALS &

methodsThis descriptive-correlational study was conducted on 210 operational staff members of the Mazandaran Emergency Medical Center, selected through stratified sampling from 30 bases. Data were collected using a demographic and occupational characteristics checklist, an organizational climate questionnaire, and an employee retention tendency questionnaire. Data analysis was performed in SPSS version 26 using statistical tests including the independent t-test, analysis of variance, and Pearson correlation coefficient.

resultsThe mean scores for organizational climate (113.12 ± 17.76) and Employee retention tendency (47.27 ± 12.55) were at a desirable level. A statistically moderate correlation was found between organizational climate and employee retention tendency (p < 0.001; r = 0.42). A significant relationship was observed between Employee retention tendency and employment status in administrative departments (p = 0.031), non-smoking (p = 0.004), and favorable economic status (p = 0.001). Furthermore, organizational climate was significantly associated with marital status (p = 0.044).

conclusionA favorable organizational climate plays a crucial role in enhancing the retention tendency of emergency medical operational staff. Therefore, healthcare organizations are recommended to implement strategies that improve the organizational climate and, in turn, strengthen human resource retention.
