Barriers and Facilitators of Career Development among Employees with Disabilities: A Global Scoping Review.
Synthesis in Journal of occupational rehabilitation, 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
backgroundPromoting equal career opportunities for employees with disabilities is a key component of workplace inclusion and vocational rehabilitation. However, employees with disabilities continue to face unique challenges in their career development. Identifying both barriers and facilitators is essential to guide organizational practices and policy.
methodThis scoping review was conducted using the Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) framework and reported in accordance with the PRISMA extension for scoping review guidelines. Systematic searches were conducted across the Web of Science, Scopus, PsycINFO, EBSCO, PubMed, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, and IEEE Xplore databases. Studies were eligible if they examined factors influencing the career development of employees with disabilities in organizational settings.
resultFrom 2781 references extracted, 10 studies were selected. The synthesis revealed barriers and facilitators across three domain: (1) individual factors (e.g., career self-management); (2) group-level factors (e.g., support system); (3) organizational factors (e.g., workplace accommodation); and (4) family (e.g., family advocacy and expectation).
conclusionThis review highlights the multidimensional nature of career development for employees with disabilities. By categorizing the influencing factors into individual, group, family, and organizational levels, the findings provide a foundation for future research and practical strategies to promote inclusive career advancement.
