Health Promotion for Women in the Workplace: A Scoping Review.
Article in Public health nursing (Boston, Mass.). 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
backgroundThe World Health Organization and the International Labour Organization consider the workplace ideal for promoting workers' health and well-being.
objectivesTo describe workplace health promotion programs for women implemented in or through the workplace, and to synthesize the health-related outcomes reported in these studies. SEARCH STRATEGY: Research from the last 10 years (2014-2024) in the electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. SELECTION CRITERIA: We included primary empirical studies evaluating workplace health promotion programs for adult women, using quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods approaches, including experimental and quasi-experimental studies. DATA COLLECTION/ANALYSIS: Two reviewers independently screened titles and abstracts, as well as full texts, extracted data on study and intervention characteristics and health-related outcomes, and synthesized findings narratively.
resultsOf 183 records identified, 10 met the eligibility criteria. Programs were grouped into three domains: (1) mental health and stress reduction, (2) lifestyle behaviors and chronic disease prevention, and (3) maternal and reproductive health. Favorable outcomes were identified in most studies, often based on self-reported measures, including improved well-being/work-life balance, increased physical activity or fitness, enhanced social support, and continued breastfeeding when support rooms were available.
conclusionWorkplace health promotion programs for women report promising outcomes, but the evidence base is limited and heterogeneous. More rigorous, well-designed interventions tailored to women's multiple roles and life stages, ideally with comparison groups and longer follow-up, are needed.
