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: Nursing shortage is a complex national crisis compounded by high turnover of qualified nurses, particularly during and in the post-pandemic period. Objectives: To examine the effects of emotional exhaustion and resilience on the relationship between the practice environment and turnover intentions among acute care nurses. Design: Cross-sectional descriptive online survey study. Setting s: Acute care hospital settings in the United States. Participants: A total of 240 acute care nurses were recruited between October 2023 and April 2024. Methods: Participants completed four validated instruments: Practice Environment Scale-Nursing Work Index, Workplace Resilience Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Service Survey for emotional exhaustion, and Anticipated Turnover Scale. Data were analyzed using moderated mediation regressions with Hayes' PROCESS macro in SPSS version 28.0. Results: Emotional exhaustion mediated the relationship between practice environment and turnover intentions ( Conclusions: Emotional exhaustion is a central mechanism linking practice environment conditions to turnover intentions. Resilience functions as a preventative moderator, buffering the impact of practice environment on emotional exhaustion. Implications for clinical practice: The findings support multilevel strategies that address both work conditions and resilience to promote retention among acute care nurses.
