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

Depression affects about 40 % of people with coronary heart disease (CHD). This group with depression and CHD have increased mortality and morbidity, worse health-related quality of life, use health services more frequently and consequently cost the health service and the national economy considerably more than their non-depressed counterparts. A number of characteristics of depression and plausible mechanisms have been proposed to explain this observed association, which could lead to improved understanding of the association and lead to new interventions to improve cardiac outcomes. This review summarises the evidence linking depression with worse cardiac outcomes, considers specific aspects of depression which may predict worse outcomes and reviews the mechanisms that could potentially explain the direct or indirect association of depression with coronary outcomes.
