SARS-CoV-2 and work-related transmission: results of a prospective cohort of airport workers, 2020.
Article in Revista brasileira de medicina do trabalho : publicacao oficial da Associacao Nacional de Medicina do Trabalho-ANAMT, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spread rapidly around the globe. Even though multiple strategies are available for controlling infectious respiratory diseases, the current approach for managing this pandemic is the prevention of person-to-person transmission. Despite the quarantine strategy, some work positions must remain active, such as airport personnel.
objectivesTo identify risk factors for COVID-19 transmission among workers at the El Dorado, Luis Carlos Galán Airport from March to July 2020.
methodsThis is a prospective cohort study with workers of the El Dorado International Airport, in Bogotá, Colombia. A sociodemographic questionnaire was for searching for symptoms associated with COVID-19 and other risk factors. Nasopharyngeal swabs were collected for determining the presence of COVID-19. In order to identify seroconversion, we used an automated chemiluminescent immunoassay for anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG antibodies. Patients with positive results were followed-up for 21 days.
resultsWe observed an incidence of infection of 7.9%; most cases were asymptomatic. The main risk factor associated with infection was the duration of daily commute (relative risk 1.02 [95% confidence interval, 1.002-1.041]).
conclusionsWe observed asymptomatic infection by COVID-19 among airport workers. Future research should contribute with knowledge for developing strategies that guarantee the protection of airport workers.
