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

backgroundThe professional quality of life of public health nurses is a multidimensional construct associated with personal characteristics, job-related workload, and the availability of professional support. This study aimed to examine the associations between selected sociodemographic, occupational, and professional support factors and the professional quality of life of public health nurses in Hungary.

methodsA cross-sectional questionnaire-based study was conducted among public health nurses in Hungary using non-probability purposive sampling. The final sample consisted of 286 public health nurses who had been practicing for at least two years. In addition to self-developed items assessing sociodemographic characteristics, job-related factors, and professional support, the Professional Quality of Life Scale was applied. Data were analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Spearman correlation analysis, with the level of significance set at

resultsOlder age was associated with lower emotional overload resulting from work (r = -0.204,

conclusionsThe findings suggest that structured professional support systems, particularly regular case discussions, supervision, and continuing professional training, may contribute to maintaining professional well-being and workforce sustainability among public health nurses.
