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

Drawing upon Conservation of Resources theory, we examined how workaholism and heart anxiety, an often overlooked form of somatic and psychological distress, jointly relate to employees' work-focused well-being and turnover intentions. Heart anxiety reflects persistent worry about cardiac sensations, which may intensify resource depletion when combined with high workaholism. Across two studies (Study 1: 340 university employees; Study 2: 128 small business owners), both workaholism and heart anxiety were negatively associated with work-focused well-being. Workaholism strengthened the relationship between heart anxiety and work-focused well-being. Study 2 demonstrated that reduced work-focused well-being links workaholism and heart anxiety to higher turnover intentions. Consistent with COR theory, multiple simultaneous stressors compounded resource loss for employees in both occupations. Together, these findings highlight the importance of considering both work-related and health-related stressors in understanding employees resource depletion and work-related outcomes.
