[BK 3101-infectious diseases].
Review in Der Internist, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundHealth care workers (HCW) are at risk of occupational exposure to infectious diseases and can also transmit diseases to their patients. The related occupational disease (BK: "Berufskrankheit") is BK 3101.
objectiveNumber of claims and confirmed claims of occupational infections, risk of infection depending on occupation and field of activity, kind of infectious diseases, limits and opportunities of prevention. MATERIALS AND
methodsSelective literature search, particularly on data of accident insurance institutions regarding occupational infections among HCW.
resultsIn 2017, BK 3101 was the fifth most common cause of confirmed occupational disease. The number of occupational infections in HCW has decreased over the last 22 years in Germany. The decrease was primarily due to lower rates of blood-borne infections.
conclusionOccupational infections continue to be a risk for HCW. Preventive measures reduce the risk of infection among HCW as well as the nosocomial transmission among patients.
