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

objectiveThe aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of heat-related illness (HRI) safety training tailored for farmworker harvesting crews.

methodsWe surveyed 52 farmworkers in three crews on heat safety knowledge, self-reported behaviors, and heat illness symptoms. Each provided a pre and post shift urine sample for analysis of specific gravity. One crew received an HRI training program and a "buddy system" to remind co-workers to rest and hydrate.

resultsThe intervention crewmembers exchanged more heat safety reminders during the day and reported more rest and hydration. Social network analysis shows how coworkers disseminated heat safety messages. There was no difference in urine specific gravity among intervention or control crews.

conclusionsSocial networks within harvesting crews can be leveraged to disseminate heat safety messages. Dehydration measures indicate training is not sufficient to protect workers from symptoms of HRI.
