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
Introduction: Newly recruited nurses are prone to negative emotions and have a high incidence of job burnout due to insufficient work experience and weak ability to handle clinical emergencies. Different modes of perceived responses to capitalization attempts may affect their job burnout through professional identification, and the specific mechanism of action among the three has not been clarified yet. Objectives: To explore the mediating role of professional identification between perceived responses to capitalization attempts and job burnout among newly recruited nurses, and to provide theoretical basis and practical reference for burnout intervention in this group. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted. From May to August 2024, 232 newly recruited nurses ( ≤ 2 years of clinical experience) from two tertiary hospitals in Wuhan were selected via cluster sampling. Data were collected using the Perceived Responses to Capitalization Attempts Scale, Professional Identification Scale, and Chinese version of Maslach Burnout Inventory. Pearson correlation, multiple linear regression, and structural equation modeling with bias-corrected bootstrapping were used for analysis. Results: Job burnout was negatively correlated with active-constructive ( Conclusion: This study reveals, within the Job Demands-Resources and positive psychology frameworks, the mediating role of professional identification in how perceived responses to capitalization attempts affect job burnout in new nurses. The findings offer empirical support for developing targeted strategies to enhance professional identity, reduce burnout, and address factors associated with nursing workforce instability.
