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: Newly recruited healthcare professionals may experience interpersonal, role-related, and psychological challenges during the transition to clinical practice that are insufficiently addressed by conventional technical orientation. This study explored occupational adaptation needs and preliminarily evaluated a structured organizational support program in a tertiary hospital in China. Methods: We conducted a mixed-methods intervention study at a tertiary hospital in Beijing. Twenty-eight newly recruited healthcare professionals participated in the needs assessment, and 10 participants with common occupational adaptation challenges completed an 8-month organizational support program comprising six structured group sessions. We used questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and participant observation to assess professional skill adaptation, interpersonal interaction, team collaboration, and psychological stress adaptation. Results: All 28 participants reported a need for practical clinical skills training, while 26 (92.9%) reported a need for psychological support and stress-management guidance. Fourteen participants (50.0%) reported work-related stress, and 13 (46.4%) reported anxiety associated with overtime work. Among the 10 intervention participants, the overall occupational adaptation score increased from 36.1 to 46.9, with the largest increases observed in interpersonal interaction, team collaboration, and psychological stress adaptation. Participants and supervisors reported high satisfaction. Conclusion: The structured organizational support program was well accepted, and preliminary pre-post improvements in occupational adaptation were observed, supporting further evaluation in larger controlled studies.
