Raising awareness of occupational carcinogens among apprentices in an approach to promoting health in the workplace.
Article in Canadian journal of public health = Revue canadienne de sante publique, 2026. 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
goalsThe aim of this article is to report on an interventional research project - based in the human and social sciences, particularly sociology and educational sciences - designed to better understand how auto body technician, hairdresser, and beautician apprentices perceive the prevention of occupational carcinogenic risks, and to experiment with educational interventions aimed at raising their awareness of this issue.
methodsThe associated methodology combines interviews with apprentices and training professionals (n = 72), and over a hundred hours of observations in practice workshops and in classrooms. Interventions were carried out in four classrooms, the effects of which were measured by interviews and administered questionnaires.
resultsAlthough apprentices are concerned about their health, their position within the division of labour offers them very limited scope for preventive action. Professional norms tend to reinforce certain barriers to prevention. Carcinogenic risk, due to its delayed effects, remains difficult to apprehend and calls for specific intervention strategies. The interventions help to inform and initiate changes in their practices, but they struggle to make learners' awareness of the structural obstacles to prevention. All of these findings have been used to create tools that make up an educational kit available to trainers.
conclusionPreventing occupational carcinogenic risk among apprentices is a complex issue, and interventions in schools are one way of addressing it. However, a global change in practices requires these projects to be transferred to a larger scale, along with structural changes in working environments to promote the health of apprentices.
