Article in Sozial- und Praventivmedizin, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Occupational risk factors for arthrosis of the knee confirmed by x-ray were evaluated in a case-control study comprising 115 male and 86 females cases. Controls (95 men and 87 women) were free of symptoms of the musculoskeletal system. For both sexes age-adjusted odds ratios were calculated. Elevated odds rations were found in men working on their knees (OR 2.2), being exposed to vibrations of the upper limbs (OR 2.8), or adverse climatic conditions--humidity, coldness, or current air (OR 2.0). Men working in the metal industry or in other not further classified blue collar jobs also showed increased odds ratios (OR 3.2 and 3.1). In women odds rations were elevated for working in a standing position (OR 2.1) and for working with heavy tools (OR 6.1).
