Effectiveness of strategies to prevent burnout syndrome in hospital-based healthcare personnel: an overview of systematic reviews
Synthesis in Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Medicas (Cordoba, Argentina), 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
introductionBurnout syndrome (BO) significantly affects healthcare personnel, especially in hospital settings. The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified this issue, highlighting the need for effective preventive strategies.
objectivesTo synthesize available evidence on the effectiveness of individual, organizational, and combined strategies to prevent or reduce BO in hospital-based healthcare personnel. MATERIALS AND
methodsA systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Epistemonikos, and the Virtual Health Library for systematic reviews published between January 1, 2014, and January 15, 2024. Reviews with or without meta-analyses were included if they evaluated preventive interventions for BO and contained at least one primary study. Reviews focused solely on stress, well-being, or anxiety without specific BO outcomes were excluded. Two reviewers independently extracted data on study characteristics, types of interventions, measurement tools, and outcomes. A de novo extraction of 107 primary studies was also performed.
resultsTwenty-seven systematic reviews were included. The most frequently evaluated interventions were mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral therapy, workload reduction, and professional coaching. Structured, in-person interventions generally showed greater effectiveness. Organizational strategies yielded mixed results.
conclusionBoth individual and organizational interventions can reduce BO in healthcare professionals. Structured, face-to-face, and multifaceted approaches appear to be more effective. High-quality research is needed, with emphasis on implementation strategies tailored to clinical contexts.
