Support factors for sustaining interpreters' wellbeing and professional functioning: a fuzzy Delphi study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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: Interpreters work under substantial cognitive, emotional, physical, and organizational demands, yet evidence on the resources supporting their wellbeing and professional functioning remains dispersed across settings and modalities. This study developed and prioritized a multilevel support framework through expert consensus. Methods: A literature-informed framework comprising four dimensions and 31 candidate sub-themes was developed through a targeted narrative review, thematic synthesis, and content and face review. Of 20 experts invited, 15 completed an online questionnaire using a seven-point importance scale. Ratings were analyzed using the Fuzzy Delphi Method according to predefined consensus and retention criteria. Results: All four dimensions and 27 candidate sub-themes met the retention criteria, yielding a sub-theme retention rate of 87.10%. Within the expert panel, professional preparedness, agency, and sustainable competence received the strongest dimension-level endorsement ( Conclusion: The resulting panel-endorsed content framework advances a multilevel conceptualization of individual, professional, relational, and organizational resources and provides a structured basis for interpreter education, professional support, organizational policy, and occupational-health planning. While the rankings are confined to the relative priorities of this 15-member panel and provide no basis for a universal or causal hierarchy, the framework offers a foundation for subsequent measurement, validation, and implementation research involving more diverse panels across interpreting settings and modalities.
