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
Background: Depression is a frequent mental health problem in industrial workers. Understanding work-related stressors linked to occupational depression can guide preventive action in industry settings. Objective: To analyze associations between work stress factors and occupational depression among production workers in a beverage processing factory in East Java, Indonesia. Methods: An observational analytic cross-sectional mixed-methods (explanatory sequential) study was conducted between October 2024 and April 2025. Quantitative data were collected using self-administered questionnaires covering demographics, the Holmes-Rahe Social Readjustment Rating Scale, the Stress Diagnostic Survey-30 (SDS-30), and the Occupational Depression Inventory (ODI). Fifteen participants were randomly selected for focus group discussions (FGDs) to explore perceived workplace stressors. Occupational depression was defined as an ODI score ≥5. Associations were examined using a chi-squared or Fisher's exact test and multivariable logistic regression analysis. Results: Of the 140 production workers, 28 (20.0%) screened positive for occupational depression. In bivariate analyses, all six SDS-30 domains-role ambiguity, role conflict, quantitative overload, qualitative overload, career development stress, and responsibility for others-were significantly associated with occupational depression ( Discussion: Occupational depression affected one in five production workers in this setting. Quantitative workload pressure emerged as the most salient and modifiable risk factor, underscoring the importance of workload management, clear task allocation, and organizational support to protect workers' mental health.
