Predictors of hearing protection behavior among firefighters in the United States.
Article in International journal of behavioral medicine, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07534098 (Intervention for Hearing Health Among Native Americans), which is not on this map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
backgroundNoise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a major occupational health problem that can be prevented through the use of hearing protection devices (HPDs). PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to identify significant factors related to firefighters' use of HPDs.
methodsA total of 404 firefighters from 35 fire departments in multiple states in the United States participated in an Internet-based survey from March 2010 to May 2011.
resultsPearson correlations and multiple regression analysis suggested that several modifying and cognitive-perceptual factors were significantly related to HPD use, including noise exposure, interpersonal influences, organizational support, perceived barriers to HPD use, and perceived susceptibility to hearing loss. The multiple regression model explained 56% (R(2) = .56, adjusted R(2) = .54) of the variance in firefighters' use of HPDs (F(13, 372) = 35.65, p < .001).
conclusionsFuture research should focus on incorporating these significant predictors into effective behavioral interventions designed to promote the use of HPDs in this population.
