Article in Risk management and healthcare policy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundHealthcare providers are facing an increasing threat as a result of confronting COVID-19. The aim of the present study was to assess the changes in compliance with the protective behavioral recommendations after taking the first round of COVID-19 vaccine among healthcare workers in Southern Ethiopia.
methodsA cross-sectional study design was used in which quantitative data were collected using a survey method. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to a sample of healthcare workers who were selected through a multi-stage cluster sampling technique. From the 403 healthcare workers who participated in the survey, 236 properly completed and returned the questionnaires. After inserting it into SPSS software, data were analyzed using frequency tables, percentage distributions, and logistic regression coefficients.
resultsWhile 30.5% of the healthcare workers disclosed a decreasing experience of wearing mask, 30.1% revealed that their experience of regularly washing hands has decreased after taking the first round of COVID-19 vaccine. The main reasons for not regularly wearing a mask are its inconvenience (60%), the need to appear indifferent (38.5%), and that they cannot afford to buy one due to its cost (15.4%). Above all, respondents' level of compliance with regular wearing of a mask is significantly associated with sex (OR = 3.165, P<0.05; 95% CI: 1.186-8.448), the type of organization in which they are currently working (OR = 3.553, P<0.05; 95% CI: 1.185-10.647), knowing someone ever infected by COVID-19 (OR = 0.091, P<0.001; 95% CI: 0.030-0.275), and the belief that COVID-19 causes a severe illness (OR = 0.249, P<0.05; 95% CI: 0.299-2.615).
conclusionWe have found significant reductions in adherence to the usual protective mechanisms. Therefore, increased access to the personal protective materials, including water, should be created and the healthcare workers should be continuously informed about the serious consequences of ignorance of self-protective behavior.
