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

Introdution: Severe occupational stress and burnout are widespread among teachers in primary and secondary schools in urbanizing China. While studies have examined these phenomena, few studies have used an individual-centered perspective meanwhile integrated Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) and Network Analysis (NA) to investigate the heterogeneity and underlying connections between stress and occupational burnout. Methods: This study aimed to address these gaps by examining co-occurrence patterns and core symptoms of teacher stress and burnout in a sample of 2,769 teachers using the Wilson Stress Profile and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Results: The LPA revealed two distinct latent profiles: low stress-burnout and high stress-burnout. NA showed heterogeneity in the stressburnout network, with physical symptoms central in the low stress-burnout group and emotional exhaustion in the high stress-burnout group. Discussion: The networks indicated strong interconnections, suggesting a dynamic link between stress and burnout. These findings highlight the varied experiences of teacher stress and burnout, informing targeted interventions to improve teacher well-being.
