1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Mental disorders have been responsible for increasing sickness absenteeism, and are associated with long-term disabilities, resulting in reduced productivity and quality of life for workers. Objectives: To describe the profile of sickness absenteeism due to mental and behavioral disorders among federal civil servants in the executive branch in the state of Acre between 2013 and 2018. Methods: In this descriptive time series analysis with a quantitative design, sick leaves for mental and behavioral disorders approved by clinics of the Integrated Subsystem for Civil Servant Health Care of Acre were investigated. Results: Mental and behavioral disorders were the second main cause of absences during the study period, leading to more than 19,000 lost workdays. The prevalence of these leaves ranged from 0.81% in 2013 to 2.42% in 2018. Sick leaves due to mental disorders were granted mainly to female employees aged > 41 years for a period of 6-15 days. The most frequent diagnoses were depressive episodes, followed by other anxious disorders. Conclusions: Sickness absenteeism due to mental and behavioral disorders increased during the study period. These results reveal an urgent need for health promotion programs and prevention policies for these disorders in this population, as well as for further research to assess the impact of work conditions and the organization of work processes on the mental health of federal civil servants.
