Mentally active versus passive sedentary behaviors and burnout among nurses of China: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: The aim of this study was to explore the differential associations of mentally active versus passive sedentary behavior with burnout among nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 1,132 nurses in Zhejiang, China, daily SBs were self-reported with The Chinese Adult Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire and burnout was measured by Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey. Results: Nurses who accumulated more than 4 h/day of mentally active SBs (working, reading, hobbies, transportation, and chatting) had 47% lower burnout odds than those who reported less than1 h/day (OR = 0.53; 95% CI 0.33-0.86); this inverse association remained after excluding transport-related SB. Mentally passive SB showed no significant association. Conclusion: Engaging in mentally active sedentary behavior was associated with lower odds of burnout among nurses.
