Psychometric evaluation of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale 3 months after acute lung injury.

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
purposeTo conduct a psychometric evaluation of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and to evaluate associations of 2 measures of psychological distress with the HADS Anxiety (HADS-A) and HADS Depression (HADS-D) subscales in acute lung injury (ALI) survivors. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe used 3-month post-ALI follow-up data from 151 participants in a multisite prospective cohort study to evaluate the internal consistency and structure of the HADS subscales and items, respectively. We used Spearman ρ correlations and other statistics to relate the 3-level version of the EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D-3L) anxiety/depression item and Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) "mental health"-related domains to the HADS subscales.
resultsInternal consistency was good for each of the HADS subscales (α ≥ .70). Exploratory factor analysis revealed a 2-factor structure (anxiety and depression). The EQ-5D-3L item and the SF-36 mental health-related domain scores were associated with HADS-A (ρ = 0.54 and -0.48 to -0.70, respectively) and HADS-D (ρ = 0.41 and -0.48 to -0.52, respectively) scores (all P < .01). The relationship between the SF-36 mental health domain score and the HADS-A subscale score was particularly strong (ρ = -0.70, P < .01).
conclusionsWhen evaluated in ALI survivors, the HADS has good internal consistency and a 2-factor structure. The HADS subscales were substantially correlated with the EQ-5D-3L anxiety/depression item and SF-36 mental health-related domain scores, suggesting convergent validity for these measures of psychological distress in ALI survivors.
