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: Mental healthcare providers (MHPs) face high burnout due to emotional demands and workload pressures. In Jordan, limited resources and public stigma may further increase occupational strain, underscoring the need to assess burnout among MHPs. This study aims to assess burnout levels among MHPs in Jordan, compare burnout dimensions across professional groups, and examine associations with demographic and work-related factors. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 221 MHPs in Jordan. Burnout was measured using the Arabic Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), which assesses emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and personal accomplishment (PA). Data was collected from February 11 to 25, 2025, through online questionnaires (Google Forms; Results: The mean scores indicated high EE (19.06 ± 12.26), low DP (6.21 ± 6.90), and moderate PA (31.57 ± 11.61). In total, 42.5% reported high EE, 71.9% low DP, and 48.4% high PA, suggesting lower burnout in this area. MANOVA identified significant effects of age ( Conclusion: MHPs in Jordan face high EE, low DP, and moderate PA. This necessitates improving organizational support, adequate staffing, managing workloads, regulating overtime, implementing supportive supervision and well-being programs to sustain providers' performance, enhance resilience and coping with work-related stress.
