Advancing workplace mental health equity in post-apartheid South Africa: an intersectional mixed-methods study.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Workplace mental health is a global public health priority, yet evidence from African contexts remains limited. This study examined workplace well-being through an intersectional social determinants lens in a South African organisational context to identify equity-relevant disparities and explain the mechanisms producing them. Methods: An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was employed. Quantitative survey data ( Results: Gender significantly predicted mental well-being ( Conclusion: Workplace well-being in post-apartheid South Africa is shaped by intersecting social determinants rather than isolated demographic factors. Culturally responsive, equity-oriented interventions must address structural caregiving burdens, kin obligations, and masculine norm constraints while redistributing workplace demands and resources. Income's protective effects are socially mediated: Black tax constrains financial benefit even at higher salary levels, challenging the assumption that economic resources operate uniformly in structurally unequal settings. The Intersectional Social Determinants Model offers an organising framework for future inquiry in similar contexts.
