Quality of Work Life of Medical Residents: Evaluation of Positive Learning and Working Environment in a Tertiary Hospital.
Article in Cureus, 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
Background Quality of work life (QoWL) is a construct assessing the relationship between working conditions and employee well-being. Resident physicians are a vulnerable group due to high-risk hospital environments and demanding academic-labor dualities. This study is based on the premise that "it is impossible to prevent or optimize what has not been measured." This study aimed to characterize and identify the environmental, organizational, and personal factors associated with a satisfactory QoWL among resident physicians in a tertiary care hospital. Methodology An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 210 resident physicians. QoWL was measured using the validated CVT-GOHISALO instrument, which evaluates seven multidimensional domains through 74 items. The primary outcome, "satisfactory QoWL," was defined as a McCall T-score ≥60. Additional data on clinical and occupational history were collected via the Epidemiological Survey of Quality and Life at Work. Bivariate analyses and a multivariate logistic regression model (backward stepwise method) were employed to identify independent predictors, with model fitness assessed via the Akaike information criterion. Results Of the 210 residents, 151 (71.9%) reported a satisfactory QoWL. Multivariate analysis identified the following as significant protective factors: not smoking (odds ratio (OR) = 6.88, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.99-23.85), a work environment free of extreme temperatures (OR = 5.12, 95% CI = 1.49-17.63), adequate space distribution (OR = 4.17, 95% CI = 1.40-12.39), and the absence of work-related stress (OR = 7.34, 95% CI = 2.56-21.02). Conclusions This study demonstrates that specific environmental factors, primarily temperature control and spatial layout, alongside the mitigation of work-related stress, are the strongest predictors of a satisfactory QoWL. To foster a culture of prevention, hospital administrations should prioritize ergonomic workplace modifications and implement psychological support.
