[Sick leaves in military residents and COVID-19 in Mexico].
Observational study in Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, 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
Background: The training of health personnel is a priority on global, regional and national agendas. Sick leave is the mechanism that protects people from carrying out activities that may aggravate their health status. In Mexico, there is little information about sick leaves in resident doctors, military doctors in training and even more about the effect of the pandemic on this. Objective: To compare the incidence of sick leaves in resident doctors of the Military Graduate School of Health in the face of the appearance of COVID-19. Material and methods: The study population was medical personnel in training which was active in the 2020 cycle. The design was observational and longitudinal of the sick leaves that occurred before the pandemic (cycle 2019) and during the pandemic (cycles 2020 and 2021). Incidence rates were estimated and compared. Results: 204 residents were included, out of which 49.5% presented at least one sick leave. The incidences due to Other causes were 3.2, 4.4 and 8.3 cases per school year 2019-2021, respectively, while due to COVID-19 it was 33.3% (2020) and 6.9% (2021). The incidence ratio between pandemic (2020)/pre-pandemic (2019) periods was 12.4 and it was statistically significant. The incidence of COVID-19 increased by year of residence, with an incidence ratio (advanced years/initial years) of 1.5. Conclusions: The incidence of sick leaves increased significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The incidence rate of sick leaves due to COVID-19 was increasing per year of residence.
