The impact of angina and cardiac history on health-related quality of life and depression in coronary heart disease patients.

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
objectiveTo prospectively examine the contribution of angina and cardiac history to health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and depression in cardiac patients, over 6 months post-hospitalization.
methodsParticipants were myocardial infarction (MI), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) outpatients under the age of 70 years. One hundred and seventy-one patients consented to participate, with 121 patients being retained 6 months later (71% response rate). The impact of the patient's cardiac history and the presence of angina on physical, social and emotional HRQoL and depression was examined.
resultsAt baseline, cardiac history was not significantly related to any of the dimensions of HRQoL or depression. At 6-month follow-up, cardiac history significantly predicted a higher level of depression, and angina was predictive of a significantly worse emotional, physical and social HRQoL and a higher level of depression. DISCUSSION: The presence of a cardiac history is associated with depression 6 months post-cardiac event, and angina is associated with both an adverse HRQoL and higher levels of depression. As past research has demonstrated that depression is a risk factor for mortality in patients with established heart disease, it is important from both a clinical and a research perspective to address these issues.
