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

This study aims to examine the relationships among transformational leadership, psychological empowerment, and job crafting among teachers in medical universities, with a particular focus on the mediating role of psychological empowerment. A total of 600 teachers from three medical universities completed three validated scales: the Transformational Leadership Scale, the Psychological Empowerment Scale, and the Job Crafting Scale, and 566 valid questionnaires were collected (94.33% response rate). Pearson correlation, CFA, SEM, ML, and bootstrap methods were employed using SPSS 28.0 and AMOS 28.0 to test the proposed hypotheses. The results indicated that transformational leadership had a significant positive impact on medical teachers’ job crafting and psychological empowerment. Moreover, psychological empowerment significantly positively predicted job crafting and partially mediated the relationship between transformational leadership and job crafting. These findings suggest that fostering transformational leadership and enhancing teachers’ psychological empowerment are effective strategies to promote proactive work behaviors among medical university teachers.
