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
Objective: Guided by the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theory, this study aimed to reveal the current status of work fatigue risk among pediatric nurses and to identify the key influencing factors, in order to provide evidence for targeted interventions. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted. From February to March 2025, convenience sampling was used to select 325 pediatric nurses from a tertiary hospital in China as study participants. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the general information questionnaire, the Work Fatigue Risk Assessment Questionnaire for Nurses, Simplified Coping Style Scale, and Social Support Rating Scale. Univariate and multiple linear stepwise regression analyses were used to explore the influencing factors. Results: A total of 323 pediatric nurses were included in the final analysis, yielding a response rate of 99.4%. Their overall work fatigue risk score was 54.77 ± 12.78 (range: 22-110). Pediatric nurses scored highest on the personal state dimension (18.05 ± 4.52), followed by the organizational culture dimension (15.32 ± 4.66). For 323 pediatric nurses, work fatigue risk was negatively correlated with positive coping and social support, and positively correlated with negative coping (all Conclusion: Pediatric nurses exhibited a moderate level of work fatigue risk. Guided by the JD-R theory, sleep disorders, working in the NICU, coping styles, and health status were key predictors of work fatigue risk. The findings provided a theoretical reference for nursing administrators to develop targeted, personalized interventions that reduce the work fatigue risk.
