VTune 2023 and OpenMP with threading analysis - can't make any sense of it.

I am using VTune to profile an OpenMP application running on a 16 core machine. I know I am not getting a very good scaling, and want to analyze the compute bound part of the app. However running the threading analysis has proven to completely useless for me. Intuitively I know I have too many locks, but VTune threading analysis results just seem incomprehensible.  
I got much more useful information out of a regular hotspots analysis. 

It seems that some kind of detailed help or tutorial on how to interpret the threading analysis is needed, but anything on the Intel web site is years old.
