Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesTo assess the prevalence of job satisfaction and burnout among pediatric intensivists in India and to examine factors associated with work-life balance and well-being.
methodsA cross-sectional online survey was conducted among practicing pediatric intensivists across India. The questionnaire included demographic and work-related details, the Warr-Cook-Wall Job Satisfaction Scale (7-point Likert), and the Muir Matches Visual Burnout Scale. Descriptive analysis and multivariable linear regression were used to identify factors associated with job satisfaction and burnout.
resultsA total of 216 responses were included for analysis. The mean overall job satisfaction score was 4.7 (± 1.3). Burnout was prevalent, with 58.3% reporting stage 4 or higher burnout. On multivariable analysis, higher designation was associated with higher job satisfaction. Higher designation and more frequent sleep disruption were associated with higher burnout scores, while the presence of hobbies was associated with lower burnout scores. Spending time with family and friends, and taking short breaks/holidays were the commonly reported personal coping strategies. Only 22.9% reported the presence of workplace-level wellness initiatives.
conclusionsPediatric intensivists in India report moderate levels of job satisfaction but a high burden of burnout. These findings highlight the need for organizational-level interventions, review of work structures, and promotion of healthy coping strategies to support this vital workforce.
