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

to identify the occurrence of violence at work affecting nursing professionals working in hospitals and to relate professional profile variables to this phenomenon. this is an exploratory, cross-sectional, descriptive, correlational, field and quantitative study carried out with 218 nursing professionals working in hospital units in the 8th Health Region of Paraná, using a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Questionnaire for the Evaluation of Violence at Work Suffered or Witnessed by Nursing Workers. Data was analyzed using absolute and relative frequencies, and the Chi-squared test with Yates' continuity correction was used to verify the associated factors. the sample included 218 nursing professionals, 44.0% of whom reported having suffered violence at work, 11.9% physical violence, 47.7% verbal abuse and 2.8% sexual harassment. When the association was made, it was observed that professionals over 30 and who work overtime suffer more violence than other professionals. in view of the above, it was possible to see a significant occurrence of episodes of violence at work in the last 12 months, with verbal violence being the most frequently reported.

background(1) Significant prevalence of violence in the workplace.
