Availability and Use of Workplace Supports for Health Promotion Among Employees of Small and Large Businesses.
Article in American journal of health promotion : AJHP, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
purposeTo explore the availability and utilization of workplace health supports by employees of small and large-sized employers.
designCross-sectional, telephone-based interviews collected on 16 workplace health supports for physical activity and diet.
settingParticipants selected by random-digit-dialing from 4 metropolitan areas of Missouri employees from 2012 to 2013.
participantsTwo thousand fifteen working adults.
methodsWe explored the availability and use of supports by employer size (<100 employees vs ≥100 employees), accounting for industry and personal factors. ANALYSIS: We examined distributions and Poisson regression models of availability for supports by employer size and by industry and use of supports by employer size and personal factors.
resultsOne-fifth of the 1796 employees were employed by small-sized employers. Large employers offered more supports than small (mean: 6 vs 3), but a higher proportion of employees of small-sized employers used supports when available (59% vs 47%). The differences in offered supports between industries were not due to size alone. In regard to the determinants of participation, the personal factors of gender, age, weight, and income were associated with participation in 10 of the supports. Employer size was also associated with participation in 10 supports. No associations were found between personal factors or workplace size and participation for 3 supports.
conclusionA higher proportion of employees working for smaller businesses use available supports than employees of larger businesses. Supports offered by employers should target the needs and interests of the workforce, particularly for the higher risk low-income employees.
