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: Employment is a critical dimension of social participation for individuals with disabilities, yet persistent barriers restrict equitable workforce engagement. Objective: This scoping review applied the Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) model to systematically examine factors influencing employment among people with disabilities. Methods: Guided by established scoping review methodological frameworks and reported in accordance with PRISMA-ScR, a comprehensive search was conducted across four major databases (Embase, PubMed, CNKI, and PubScholar) to identify relevant studies published between January 2015 and January 2025. After screening 6,240 records, 20 articles met the inclusion criteria. Data were extracted and synthesized using a theory-informed thematic analysis based on the PEOP model. Results: The included studies were categorized into the Person ( Conclusion: Findings highlight the complex and interrelated influences of personal, environmental, and occupational factors on employment for people with disabilities. Future research should expand to underrepresented regions and populations and develop culturally appropriate, evidence-based interventions to promote inclusive employment.
