Level of and Changes in Perceived Work Ability Among Partial Disability Pensioners and the Risk of Full Disability Pension-A Register-Linked Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of occupational rehabilitation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeTo examine how the level of perceived work ability and its changes over time are associated with the risk of full disability pension (DP) among those receiving partial DP.
methodsWe retrieved survey data on perceived work ability and covariates (sociodemographic factors and health behaviors) from a cohort study of Finnish public sector employees at two time points: 2008 and 2012 and linked them with register data on DP obtained from the Finnish Centre for Pensions up to the end of 2018. Participants had begun receiving partial DP in 2008 and responded to either the 2008 survey (n = 159) or both surveys (n = 80). We used Cox regression for the analyses.
resultsDuring the follow-up, 61 (38%) of those receiving partial DP transitioned to full DP. Those with perceived poor work ability were at a higher risk of full DP (HR 1.93; 95% CI 1.11-3.38) than those with at least moderate work ability, after adjustment for covariates. During four years of receiving partial DP, perceived work ability decreased among 36% of the participants, and remained unchanged or improved among 64%. Change in work ability was not associated with a risk of full DP.
conclusionAmong those receiving partial DP, perceived poor work ability was a risk factor for full DP. Our findings highlight the importance of monitoring the level of perceived work ability of those receiving partial DP to enable identifying individuals at an increased risk of full DP.
