[Mental and physical stress in the emergency medical services: association of work-related behavior and the consequences of stress].
Article in Bundesgesundheitsblatt, Gesundheitsforschung, Gesundheitsschutz, 2022. 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
backgroundAmbulance workers are subject to a variety of work-related stress factors. These are counteracted by work-related resources. The aim of this work was to survey the mental and physical stress factors in emergency services personnel and to analyze the relationships between work-related behavior and stress consequences. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwo hundred and seventy-six emergency services personnel (39.3 ± 8.04 years old) participated. The survey included occupational questions as well as questionnaires for the subjective assessment of stress at work according to Slesina, work-related behavior and experience patterns (AVEM), recovery stress (EBF), and physical, psychological, and social symptoms (KOEPS).
resultsThe stresses reported by most respondents were awkward posture, lifting/carrying heavy loads, physical labor, and shift work. The highest rating for stress intensities was shift work (76.9% "often"). About one-third of the respondents showed a risk pattern of work-related behavior. KOEPS and EBF results were not abnormal. Behavioral traits that reflect job-related emotions correlated positively with recovery and negatively with strain and health complaints, which is consistent with theory. Striving for perfection, offensive problem solving, and professional ambition were not or hardly associated with the stress consequences. DISCUSSION: The risk assessment and collection of work-related behavioral data of emergency services personnel with regard to coping with the job's demands provide starting points for organizational and individual preventive measures. Based on AVEM templates, these can be customized.
