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
Millions of workers, particularly those in the agriculture sector, face workplace violence around the world. Workplace violence impacts on workers' psychosocial well-being, employment, job security, job satisfaction, rate of absenteeism, and productivity. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of workplace violence and associated factors among farmworkers in west Gojjam, northwest Ethiopia. A total of 411 participants were recruited through stratified random sampling techniques in a cross-sectional study. Data were collected using pretested questionnaires based on face-to-face interviews. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify potential factors related to workplace violence. Adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with 95% CI of P-value <0.05 declared that the outcome was statistically significant. Workplace violence was experienced among 75.4% (95% CI: 71-80) of study participants. Employment in specific departments (AOR: 2.67, 95% CI: 1.36-5.21), employment in a labor administration department (AOR: 2.98, 95% CI: 1.01-8.7), employment in an agricultural department (AOR: 4.06, 95% CI: 1.29-12.7), status as a permanent employee (AOR: 3.0, 95% CI: 1.10-8.20), alcohol consumption (AOR: 6.4, 95% CI: 3.5-11.7), and khat chewing (AOR: 6.49, 95% CI: 2.88-14.6) were significantly associated with workplace violence. Farmworkers experienced a high rate of workplace violence. Workplace violence was found to be more common in the labor administration and agriculture departments as well as among permanent workers, alcohol drinkers, and khat chewers. Health education strategies are recommended to minimize the influence of unwanted workplace violence among farmworkers.
