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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThe present study examines the role of Type D personality, anxiety and depression in quality of life (QoL) in patients with two chronic neurological diseases--Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple sclerosis (MS).

methodsThis cross-sectional study included 142 PD patients (73 % males; mean age 67.6 ± 9.2 years) and 198 patients with MS (32.3 % males; 38.4 ± 10.8 years). Multiple regression analyses were used to analyze the association of UDPRS (PD patients) or EDSS (MS patients), Type D personality (DS-14) and anxiety and depression (HADS) with the physical (PCS) and mental summary (MCS) of QoL, as measured by the SF-36.

resultsIn PD patients, Type D was significantly associated with MCS only; in MS patients, Type D was significantly associated with both dimensions--MCS and PCS. After adding anxiety and depression, the importance of Type D for the QoL model dramatically decreased. Anxiety and depression were strongly associated with lower scores in MCS and PCS in both PD and MS patients.

conclusionsThe actual mood of PD and MS patients--the level of anxiety or depression--might have a greater impact on patients' QoL than their personality. Further longitudinal research should focus on how the pathway consisting of personality traits, anxiety and depression, and QoL might be constructed.
