Impacts of im/migration experience on work stress among sex workers in Vancouver, Canada.
Article in Canadian journal of public health = Revue canadienne de sante publique, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesDespite the precarious and unsafe working conditions frequently experienced by sex workers (SWs) and im/migrant workers, there remains a paucity of research on work-related stress and links to duration of im/migration residency among SWs. This study analyzes the relationship between duration of residency and two dimensions of work stress among SWs in Metro Vancouver.
methodsData were drawn from a longitudinal cohort of women SWs across Metro Vancouver (2010-2014). Multivariable confounder models with generalized estimating equations were developed to examine the independent effects of duration of residency on decision authority and job demands, after adjusting for confounders.
resultsOf 545 SWs, 9.7% were recent im/migrants, 13.9% were long-term im/migrants, and 76.2% were non-migrants. In comparison to non-migrant SWs, recent (β coefficient - 1.02, 95% CI - 1.57 to - 0.47) and long-term im/migrants (β coefficient - 0.87, 95% CI - 1.36 to -0.38) faced decreased work stress related to job demands after adjustment for key confounders. Decision authority did not retain a significant independent association after adjusting for the same factors.
conclusionJob demands varied significantly by duration of residency. This may be explained by changing working conditions and experiences over the course of arrival and settlement among im/migrant SWs, as well as the role of formal work environments in supporting im/migrant SWs' well-being. Given high rates of work stress related to job demands and low decision authority among all SWs, decriminalization of sex work, improved occupational standards, and culturally sensitive interventions to promote collectivization and improved access to working conditions remain needed.
