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
aim of the studyThis secondary analysis aims to investigate the prevalence and uptake of workplace health promotion (WHP) in Germany.
methodsOur data base was the 2018 BIBB-/BAuA Survey in Germany, which is a randomized representative CATI survey of 20,012 employed persons aged 15 and older. Proportions were compared among different groups and a binary logistic regression model was estimated.
results47% of the employees reported that WHP interventions had been implemented in their company in the last two years. 25% of the employees had taken up the offer of WHP. The proportion of employees who confirmed that WHP was offered in their company increased sharply with the company size, but the take-up rates decreased. Employees in companies with a works/staff council stated a disproportionately high rate of implementation of WHP. However, employees with a low socioeconomic status reported WHP offer to a relatively small extent. In particular, employees without a vocational qualification, in a fixed-term employment, at risk of dismissal and temporary agency workers reported a relatively low implementation of WHP in their company. Logistic regression analyses aimed to identify predictors for the WHP offer. Compared to small companies, workers in medium-sized companies were more than twice as likely (OR=2.17) to have a WHP offer in their company and more than five times as likely (OR=5.64) in large companies. In the public sector, the chances of employees having WHP in their company were significantly better than in industry, crafts, trade or other sectors. Compared to German employees, employees with a foreign citizenship had a significantly lower chance of WHP being offered in their company (OR=0.78). A very good or excellent health status was associated with a slightly increased OR of 1.15 for WHP in the company. In companies in which employees were very satisfied with their work overall, the probability of a WHP offer was significantly increased (OR=1.70).
conclusionThe analysis reveals large disparities in the WHP. There is a need for WHP strategies for targeting the small companies and the employees with a low socioeconomic status within the companies.
