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

What is already known about this topic?: Impact of individual and biomechanical risk factors on musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) has been researched; however, the factors of intervenable work organization (e.g., overtime and rest breaks) require in-depth investigation, particularly in the context of national policy changes in China by 2025. What is added by this report?: Among 88,609 participants, 37.5% (33,247/88,609) had MSDs. We found that working hours [prevalence ratio ( What are the implications for public health practice?: Our findings contribute to efforts to standardize work organization management to prevent MSDs, providing reference for employers and policymakers to regulate rest breaks, manage overtime, and ensure adequate levels of staffing to comply with occupational health regulations.
