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
Introduction: The military and family can be demanding institutions with competing priorities that can cause poor work-life balance. This balance is crucial for organizational outcomes such as job engagement and burnout, and for managing psychological distress among military personnel. While organizational support improves these outcomes, support for families is less common and less studied. Additionally, work-life balance challenges may differ between men and women. This study examined the role of work-life balance and the protective roles of organizational support for members and families among Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) men and women. Methods: The Results: Work-life and life-work conflicts predicted burnout and psychological distress, but not job engagement. Organizational support predicted all outcomes for CAF men and women and mitigated the impact of work-life conflict on burnout and psychological distress. However, support to families predicted job engagement and psychological distress among men only, while it moderated the impact of life-work conflict on psychological distress among men and work-life conflict on job engagement for both genders. Discussion: Work-life balance and organizational support for members and families can improve outcomes and well-being. Leaders should reinforce work-life balance and provide support to both members and families, recognizing gender dynamics.
