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
Objective: This pilot study aims to analyze the factors influencing musculoskeletal discomfort in pregnant workers in Indonesia from occupational aspects, especially during the pandemic, to recommend further interventions and policies for a safer and healthier workplace. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study. It used an online questionnaire to collect data on individual, occupational, and work environmental factors and musculoskeletal discomfort. We used Chi-square and logistic regression analysis to determine associations between the risk factors and the musculoskeletal discomfort. Results: A total of 126 women from multiple employment sectors participated. About 59% of respondents reported discomfort, with the majority having pain in the lower back (62.2%). Chi-square analysis revealed that age, history of injury, subjective agility and speed, length of working days in a week, and subjective temperature conformity were associated with the prevalence of musculoskeletal discomfort. Logistic regression revealed that age ( Conclusion: This study shows that temperature conformity is a predictor of musculoskeletal discomfort. Employers should consider this when determining whether their workplace is suitable for pregnant women. The treatment of younger workers needs attention, especially during pregnancy, they may need extra accommodation during pregnancy.
