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

backgroundNurses are highly prone to burnout due to high pressure, heavy workloads, and emotional labor. Career calling has been associated with lower levels of burnout, but variable-centered studies have overlooked heterogeneous subgroups among nurses.

objectiveThis person-centered study used latent profile analysis to jointly examine career calling and burnout, identify burnout-career calling profiles, and explore factors associated with these profiles and their associations with self-reported missed nursing care.

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted from March to September 2025 among 524 nurses. Participants completed the Maslach Burnout Inventory, Career Calling Scale, Nursing Work Environment Scale, and Missed Nursing Care Scale online. Latent profile analysis was applied.

resultsThree profiles emerged: "Low Burnout-High Career Calling" (49.6%), "Reduced Personal Accomplishment" (37.8%), and "High Burnout-Low Career Calling" (12.6%). Age, educational level, professional title, and nursing work environment were associated with profile membership. Nurses in the "High Burnout-Low Career Calling" profile reported the highest level of missed nursing care, followed by those in the "Reduced Personal Accomplishment" profile, whereas those in the "Low Burnout-High Career Calling" profile showed the lowest level.

conclusionThis study identified three burnout-career calling profiles among nurses and examined their associated factors and differences in self-reported missed nursing care. IMPLICATION FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Nursing managers could provide tailored support for the three burnout-career calling profiles at both organizational and individual levels, including creating a supportive work environment and offering psychological support. Future research could examine whether such tailored support may help reduce missed nursing care.
