Predictors of work ability of secondary school teachers in Germany.

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
Objectives: Maintaining work ability is essential for teachers to remain in the profession for longer periods. This study examines whether work ability can be predicted by work-related and personal factors. Methods: The data comes from a representative cross-sectional study of German secondary school teachers, which included 10,739 full-time and part-time teachers (68% female, average age: 43 years). Work ability was measured using the Work Ability Index (WAI) and WAI factor 1. The teachers were divided into three age groups: 31-40 ( Results: In the overall models, the four factors explain 42% (WAI) and 46% (WAI factor 1) of the variance. EE proved to be the most important predictor of work ability, explaining 36% (WAI) and 42% (WAI factor 1) of the variance; ER ratio and OC explained only 15% to 18% of the variance. Age was a significant predictor, but of minor importance. In the CHAID decision tree, teachers with high EE and an ER imbalance (ERI) in the 51-60 age group showed the lowest work ability (WAI: M=33 out of 49 pts, 10%). The best work ability ( Conclusion: In occupational health prevention programs, WAI factor 1, EE, and ER ratio are suitable tools for advising teachers on how to maintain their work ability.
