Article in General hospital psychiatry. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05529381 (Anxiety and Depressive Symptoms of Pregnant Women Diagnosed to Have Placenta Previa / Accreta), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

objectiveTo assess the following among women hospitalized antenatally due to high-risk pregnancies: (1) rates of depression symptoms and anxiety symptoms, (2) changes in depression symptoms and anxiety symptoms and, (3) rates of mental health treatment.

methodsSixty-two participants hospitalized for high-risk obstetrical complications completed the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale (GAD-7) and Short-Form 12 weekly until delivery or discharge, and once postpartum.

resultsAverage length of total hospital stay was 8.3 ± 7.6 days for women who completed an initial admission survey (n = 62) and 16.3 ± 8.9 (n = 34), 25.4 ± 10.2 (n = 17) and 35 ± 10.9 days (n = 9) for those who completed 2, 3 and 4 surveys, respectively. EPDS was ≥ 10 in 27% (n=17) and GAD-7 was ≥ 10 in 13% (n = 8) of participants at initial survey. Mean anxiety (4.2 ± 6.5 vs. 5.2 ± 5.1, p = .011) and depression (4.4 ± 5.6 vs. 6.9 ± 4.8, p = .011) scores were lower postpartum compared to initial survey. Past mental health diagnosis predicted depression symptoms [odds ratio (OR) = 4.54; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.91-7.17] and anxiety symptoms (OR = 5.95; 95% CI 3.04-8.86) at initial survey; however, 21% (n = 10) with no diagnostic history had EPDS ≥ 10. Five percent (n = 3) received mental health treatment during pregnancy.

conclusionHospitalized high-risk obstetrical patients may commonly experience depression symptoms and/or anxiety symptoms and not receive treatment. A history of mental health treatment or diagnosis was associated with depression symptoms or anxiety symptoms in pregnancy. Of women with an EPDS ≥ 10, > 50% did not report a past mental health diagnosis.
