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

This is a protocol for a systematic review that aims to identify interventions used to improve recruitment and retention of mental healthcare professionals, and to examine the effectiveness of these interventions. Previous systematic reviews have examined interventions targeting either a specific systemic or occupational factor associated with recruitment and retention of mental health professionals or involved only a specific group of mental health professionals. To our knowledge, this will be the first review that comprehensively synthesises evidence regarding interventions for a broad range of possible systemic and/or occupational factors associated with recruitment and retention across all professional groups working in the field of mental health. The findings of this review will help inform evidence-based interventions to address challenges related to recruitment and retention of mental health workforce.
