Trial report in The American journal of geriatric psychiatry : official journal of the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00091962 (Treatment of Depression Following Bypass Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveTo determine the nature of telephone-delivered collaborative care intervention provided to patients younger than and older than 60 years experiencing clinically significant depressive symptoms after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and whether patient age is related to response and remission rates and delivery of care at 8-month follow-up.

design: Exploratory post-hoc analysis of data collected in a randomized controlled trial (RCT).

settingSeven Pittsburgh-area general hospitals.

participantsFifty-eight depressed post-CABG patients younger than 60 and 92 comparable patients age 60 years and older randomized to the RCT's intervention arm. MEASUREMENTS: : Components of collaborative care provided to patients over the 8-month study period and Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression scores at 8-month follow-up to determine response and remission status.

resultsThere were no differences in the cumulative 8-month rates at which the components of collaborative care were delivered to the two age groups. Similar response and remission rates were also achieved by these groups.

conclusionOlder and younger patients experiencing clinical depression after CABG surgery can be treated with comparable components of collaborative care, and both age groups will achieve clinical outcomes that do not differ significantly from each other.
