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
objectiveAnalyze the effect of work organization and demands, violence, health problems and job satisfaction in relation to work stress and social support in prison officers.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional study with prison police officers from four penitentiaries in São Paulo. The Demand-Control-Support Questionnaire was used and adjusted multinomial regressions were performed to obtain the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI).
resultsA total of 265 prison officers participated in the study, and poor satisfaction levels with temperature (OR 4.88; 95%CI 2.02; 11.81) and ventilation (OR 3.12; 95%CI 1.31; 7.41) were found to be associated with high-demand work. Furthermore, working more than 15 years as a prison officer (OR 2.59; 95%CI 1.33; 5.08), reporting physical violence (OR 2.84; 95%CI 1.02; 7.93), psychological violence (OR 2.93; 95%CI 1.55; 5.53), poor satisfaction level with lighting (OR 2.80; 95%CI 1.11; 7.08), noise (OR 3.94; 95%CI 2.15; 7.21), ventilation (OR 2.15; 95%CI 1.20; 3.85), and furniture (OR 2.92; 95%CI 1.52; 5.60) in the workplace were associated with lower social support.
conclusionThe worst level of satisfaction with temperature and ventilation was associated with highly demanding work. Furthermore, suffering violence, greater physical demands, and a lower level of satisfaction with workplace conditions were associated with less social support. The need for improvements in infrastructure and in the organization of the work process is highlighted.
