Educational differences in alcohol-related morbidity and the role of working conditions: a Swedish register-based cohort study.
Article in European journal of public health, 2024. 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
This study aims to investigate the relationship between education and alcohol-related morbidity and the role that low job control and heavy physical workload play in explaining these associations among men and women in Sweden. This register-based cohort study (SWIP cohort) includes over three million individuals registered in Sweden in 2005. Job control and physical workload were measured using a job exposure matrix linked to the index person based on their registered occupation at baseline. Alcohol-related morbidity was measured through diagnoses in the national patient registers between 2006 and 2020. Cox proportional hazards regression models were built to estimate associations between education and alcohol-related morbidity. Reductions in hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated after adjusting for job control, physical workload, and other covariates. Models were also stratified by sex. Lower levels of education predicted a higher risk of alcohol-related morbidity (HR: 2.55 95% confidence interval: 2.49-2.62 for the lowest educated compared to the highest). Low job control and heavy physical workload both played roles in explaining educational differences in alcohol-related morbidity even after accounting for sociodemographic and health factors (15.1% attenuation for job control and 18.3% for physical workload among the lowest educated). Physical workload explained a larger proportion of the associations among men compared to women. Lower levels of education were associated with an increased risk of alcohol-related morbidity and working conditions partly explained these associations beyond what was explained by sociodemographic and health factors. Improving working conditions could therefore prevent some cases of alcohol-related morbidity.
