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
BACKGROUND AND
aimCommon mental disorders are common reasons for long-term sick leave, especially among women. Return to work is often complex and unsuccessful, why more knowledge is needed regarding women's health and psychological well-being in the return-to-work process. Therefore, the aim was to describe women's health and psychological well-being in the return-to-work process, from women's and first-line managers' perspectives.
methodsIndividual interviews were conducted with 17 women and 16 first-line managers. Qualitative content analysis was performed based on the content areas "Women's health (i.e. overall well-being, both physical and psychological) throughout the whole RTW process" and "Women's psychological well-being (happiness, meaning and a sense of being significant) at work after work resumption" Themes and categories were created.
resultsWomen and managers had similar descriptions, i.e. that women's health and psychological well-being depend on the individual characteristics of women themselves, their private life, work and other stakeholders. However, women described relational work tasks (e.g. meeting patients) as beneficial for health, and highlighted small stressors in the work environment, which the managers did not. Having work that was compatible with private life, being in good health, having stimulating work tasks and strengthening relationships at work were important for the women's psychological well-being.
conclusionsBased on women's and first-line managers experiences, promotion of women's health and psychological well-being during the return-to-work process requires individually adapted assessments and actions involving women's entire life situation. First-line managers should know that relational work tasks (e.g., meeting patients) can be beneficial for women's health as well as that minor stressor in the work environment can put their health at risk.
