ABSTRACT
The purpose of this systematic review is to gather and analyze data from existing research on the effects of clinical supervision (CS) intervention on nurses' job satisfaction and related outcomes such as stress levels, burnout, and care quality. Using the PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis) criteria, a systematic review of the research available in the databases PubMed, PsycInfo, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL, well as Google Scholar, between January 2010 and May 2023 was carried out. Out of the 760 studies assessed, only 8 met the criteria for inclusion in the review based on Hawker's assessment tool. The results indicate that CS has a positive impact on nurses' job satisfaction and related outcomes such as reduced burnout, stress levels, and the quality of care. The study also found that the effectiveness of CS in enhancing job satisfaction was most evident during the 6-month follow-up period. However, nurses who did not receive CS did not show any noticeable improvement in their knowledge or practice. Additionally, nurses who required more efficient clinical oversight reported little to no positive impact on their practice or training. The review also highlighted gaps in knowledge regarding the frequency and number of sessions required for the impact of CS on nurses' job satisfaction and other outcomes. Due to the limited number of studies included in this review, further research is recommended to evaluate the influence of CS on nurses' job satisfaction.

This meta-analysis review compared eye movement desensitization and reprocessing and cognitive behavior therapy efficacy in reducing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression symptoms. A systematic search for articles published between 2010 and 2020 was conducted using five databases. The RevMan software version 5 was used. Out of 671 studies, 8 fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in this meta-analysis. Three studies reported that eye movement desensitization and reprocessing reduced depression symptoms better than cognitive behavior therapy in both children, adolescents, and adults (SDM (95% CI) = -2.43 (-3.93--0.94), p = 0.001). In three other studies, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing were shown to reduce anxiety in children and adolescents better than cognitive behavior therapy (SDM (95% CI) = -3.99 (-5.47--2.52), p < 0.001). In terms of reducing PTSD symptoms, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing and cognitive behavior therapy did not demonstrate any statistically significant differences (SDM (95% CI) = -0.14 (-0.48-0.21), p = 0.44). There was no statistically significant difference at the three-month follow-up and at the six-month follow-up for depression (p = 0.31), anxiety (p = 0.59), and PTSD (p = 0.55). We recommend randomized trials with larger samples and longer follow-up times in the future.
