Occupational exposure and hepatitis B vaccination among health care workers.
Article in Revista brasileira de medicina do trabalho : publicacao oficial da Associacao Nacional de Medicina do Trabalho-ANAMT, 2018. 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
backgroundThrough its vaccination schedules, the National Immunization Program ensures immunization against hepatitis B gratis to health care professionals at high risk for infection at the workplace.
objectiveTo analyze the association between variables related to occupational exposure and complete hepatitis B vaccination schedule.
methodCross-sectional study with 3,084 primary care and medium complexity health care workers from five municipalities in the state of Bahia, Brazil.
resultsThe factors associated with complete hepatitis B vaccination schedule on bivariate analysis were: contact with biological materials, preparation of medications, use of personal protective equipment (PPE), search for orientation after a work accident and skill demands.
conclusionsWorkers in the health sector resist adhering to some preventive measures. Strategies to encourage vaccination might be enhanced by creating room for discussion at work on the burden to which employees are exposed. Plans and policies for workers' health should be formulated in the light of governmental policies set for the overall population.
