Effectiveness of a team-level participatory approach aimed at improving sustainable employability among long-term care workers: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Scandinavian journal of work, environment & health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesThis study aimed to evaluate one-year effects of a team-level participatory workplace intervention on need for recovery and satisfaction of the needs for autonomy, competence and relatedness among long-term care workers by means of a randomized controlled trial.
methodsTeams of long-term care workers were randomly assigned to the intervention group (ten teams; N=78) or the wait-list control group (ten teams; N=58). The intervention consisted of a problem inventory, related to the needs for autonomy, competence and relatedness, a brainstorm towards solutions and an action plan divided over three meetings guided by a facilitator. The primary outcome was need for recovery and secondary outcomes were the satisfaction of the needs for autonomy, competence and relatedness. Outcomes were measured at baseline and after 6, 9 and 12 months. Linear mixed model analyses were performed in R.
resultsThere was no significant difference in need for recovery between groups over time. The intervention group did show a slight improvement of the satisfaction of the need for relatedness over time, while in contrast, the control group showed a decrease over time. The satisfaction of the need for autonomy and competence did not significantly differ between both groups over time.
conclusionsThe approach had no significant effect on the primary outcome need for recovery. The intervention did have a significant positive impact on the satisfaction of the need for relatedness, possibly because, after a period of being unable to be close, it provided opportunity to gather and work together as a team.
