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

Introduction: Musculoskeletal disorders are prevalent among university professors. With the expansion of private higher education and the increasing demands on academic staff, psychosocial risk factors may exacerbate these conditions beyond ergonomic challenges. Objectives: To investigate the relationship between psychosocial risk factors and musculoskeletal symptoms among university professors in the private sector. Methods: This quantitative, cross-sectional, and correlational study involved 122 university professors. Data were collected using the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire and the Scale for Evaluating Psychosocial Stressors in the Workplace. Analyses included descriptive statistics, point-biserial correlations, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to assess latent relationships between psychosocial factors and musculoskeletal outcomes. Results: The structural model demonstrated an adequate fit to the data (χ Conclusions: Psychosocial factors in academic work significantly impact the manifestation of musculoskeletal symptoms and their functional consequences. Managing these factors is essential for preventing and mitigating their effects on faculty health.
