1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Healthcare worker resilience is essential to building effective, functional, and crisis-ready health systems. This systematic map aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the global evidence and identify gaps in resilience interventions for healthcare workers. A framework of interventions and outcomes was prepared with the help of advisory group members. The protocol was registered with the Open Science Framework. The search records were deduplicated and subjected to two levels of screening. We mapped 587 studies in the intervention-outcome framework. Most studies were conducted in high-income countries (473, 80.58%) and among nurses (284 studies, 48.38%), followed by other categories of healthcare workers. The most frequently included interventions were resilience training (240, 40.89%) and training and mentorship in the workplace (236, 40.20%). Artificial Intelligence-based or systems-thinking interventions (31, 5.28%) and herbal/traditional or conventional pharmacological interventions (4, 0.68%) were the least studied. Psychological outcomes were the domain of outcomes assessed most frequently (521, 88.76%). Patient safety (7, 1.19%), systems/policy level outcomes (16, 2.73%), and performance/ presenteeism (20, 3.41%) were the least measured outcomes. Overall, this systematic map provides evidence and gaps in resilience interventions for healthcare workers and can be used for planning and conducting future primary studies or systematic reviews.
