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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesHelplines are an important component of mental health support systems; however, limited research has examined burnout among helpline workers. This exploratory pilot study investigated the relationships between job demands, job and personal resources, and burnout within the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) framework.

methodsA cross-sectional online study was conducted among 73 helpline workers. Burnout was assessed using the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT). Job demands were categorized as topic-related, client-related, and service-related. Data were analysed using Spearman correlations and hierarchical regression analyses.

resultsJob demands were positively associated with burnout (r

conclusionsThe findings highlight the importance of differentiating types of job demands in understanding burnout among helpline workers. Service-related demands appeared to be more strongly associated with burnout than topic- or client-related demands, suggesting that structural aspects of helpline work may be particularly relevant for worker well-being.
