Broad-based SARS-CoV-2 testing program for healthcare workers in a primary care hospital in France.

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
A broad-based SARS-CoV-2 testing program for all symptomatic healthcare workers (HCWs) was implemented in Tenon hospital, Paris, France. From February 26 to April 22, 2020, 701 symptomatic HCWs were screened, of whom 247 (35.2%) tested positive for SARS-Cov-2. Myalgia, fever, anosmia and ageusia were associated with RT-PCR positivity. Testing of HCWs is an essential step toward control of the epidemic. Further studies could establish clinical algorithms for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis to compensate for RT-PCR test and chest CT limits or unavailability.
