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
Background and Aims: The dedication and commitment our healthcare workers show towards their respective jobs are often overlooked. The false allegations they often face are some of the supreme indicators that they are being abused and accused at their own workplace. These incidents are impacting all aspects of their lives. This study investigated the impact of workplace violence and workplace bullying on the quality of life of healthcare workers in Chittagong, Bangladesh. Methods: A hospital-based analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 362 healthcare workers across public and private healthcare settings in Chittagong, Bangladesh. Based on the inclusion criteria, we selected our study participants, and a convenience sampling technique was used to select both the study site and participants. We used a semi-structured questionnaire for data collection. To measure workplace violence and workplace bullying, we used the 5-item WPVS and the SNAQ, respectively. quality of life (QoL) was assessed using the WHOQOL-BREF scale. Both descriptive and inferential analyses were performed to illustrate frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations. Bivariate analysis was carried out to explore the relationship between our independent factors and the outcome variable, and multivariable logistic regression was performed to examine the influence of each variable on the quality of life domain. All analyses were conducted using IBM SPSS. Results: The results showed that healthcare workers who experienced bullying had significantly lower odds of good QoL in the physical (AOR: 0.2, 95% CI: 0.1-0.6), psychological (AOR: 0.4, 95% CI: 0.2-1.0), social (AOR: 0.3, 95% CI: 0.1-0.7), and environmental (AOR: 0.4, 95% CI: 0.2-1.0) domains compared to those not exposed. However, no significant association between workplace violence and QoL was found after adjustment for covariates. Conclusion: The findings highlight the detrimental effects of workplace bullying on healthcare workers' quality of life.
