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

The necessity to ensure safety in the work environment is a priority for the functioning of mines as enterprises with a high level of exposure to hazards. The basis for this is the identification of hazards to which mine workers are exposed. This article aims to identify and systematize safety hazards present in quarries. Based on a review of the literature, hazards were identified and classified into six groups: natural, environmental, technical and technological, human, organizational, and others. Additionally, a correlation was established between the identified hazards and the stages of the mine's life cycle, as well as the methods of deposit extraction in quarries. The results presented in the article systematize existing knowledge on industry-specific hazards. The results can serve as a source of information when developing occupational risk documentation and its analysis, and form the basis for research on the causes and consequences of accidents in mining. Identifying hazards can also help effectively monitor them effectively and implement preventive measures to protect workers and reduce accident risks in quarries.
