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

Background: Amid the ongoing shortage of nursing personnel, increasing attention has been paid to nurses' work engagement, as their role is a high-stress profession. Work engagement among nurses not only reflects their efficiency but is also closely linked to the quality of patient care. This study analyzes the unexplored relationship between nurses' stressors and work engagement, investigates the multiple mediating roles of career resilience and team job crafting and offers important insights for boosting work commitment. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted using convenience sampling at three tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province, China, from July to August 2024. A total of 890 questionnaires were distributed, and 820 valid questionnaires were returned. Data were collected using a demographic characteristics questionnaire, career resilience scale, team job crafting scale, and work engagement scale. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and chain mediation analysis were conducted using SPSS 26.0 and AMOS 26.0. Results: There were significant correlations between nurses' stressors, career resilience, team job crafting, and work engagement ( Conclusion: Nurses' stressors had a direct negative effect on work engagement among nurses. Meanwhile, career resilience and team job crafting played a chain-mediating role between nurses' stressors and work engagement. Consequently, hospital administrators should focus on stress management, career resilience, and team job crafting to enhance engagement.
