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
backgroundWith the increasing emphasis on sustainability in health care, it is essential to clarify how work conditions and professional identity influence sustainable behavior in nurses. Decent work environments may contribute to professionalism, which is known to foster sustainable practices. PURPOSE: This study was designed to investigate the relationship between decent work practices and self-reported sustainable behavior in nurses, with a focus on the mediating role of professionalism.
methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample of 206 clinical nurses. Data were collected using validated Arabic versions of the Decent Work Scale, Nurses' Professionalism Inventory, and Self-Reported Sustainable Behavior Scale. Statistical analyses included Pearson correlation, t -tests, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and mediation analysis.
resultsThe results revealed significantly positive associations between all of the study variables. Decent work practices were shown to correlate strongly with both professionalism ( r =.870) and sustainable behavior ( r =.897). Also, professionalism was found to correlate positively with sustainable behavior ( r =.823). The results of the mediation analysis confirmed professionalism to significantly mediate the relationship between decent work and sustainable behavior (indirect effect β=0.332, 95% CI [0.194, 0.447]). CONCLUSIONS/IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Decent work conditions enhance professionalism and, as a result, promote sustainable behavior in nurses. These findings underscore the importance of fostering supportive work environments and professionalism to achieve sustainable health care practices. Interventions that enhance decent work and professionalism may play a critical role in advancing sustainability in health care.
