Profiling safety behavior in clinical laboratory environments.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: Laboratory safety behavior is crucial for minimizing risks in high-hazard clinical settings, yet behavioral non-compliance persists as a leading cause of laboratory accidents despite established protocols. Methods: This study evaluated safety behavior among 92 personnel employed in genetic diagnostic laboratories in Istanbul using a validated 34-item safety behavior scale. Principal component analysis (PCA), multiple linear regression, and k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) classification were employed to analyze the data. Results: The analysis revealed three underlying behavioral dimensions: personal compliance, proactive behavior, and institutional engagement. Regression analysis indicated that perceived institutional support and the frequency of safety training were significant predictors of overall safety behavior ( Discussion: These findings underscore the utility of multivariate behavioral analytics in profiling laboratory safety behavior and highlight the potential of data-informed, classification-based strategies to enhance safety interventions. Adopting behaviorally tailored approaches to training and institutional support may markedly improve compliance and mitigate risk in laboratory environments.
