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

purposeAsthma is a one of the most common allergic diseases, and depression is an important comorbidity with asthma. However, little is known about the prevalence of depression in Korean adults with asthma. This study was performed to find the association between asthma and depression in Korean adults and to investigate the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics in Korean adults with asthma and with depression.

methodsData were acquired from 47,351 men and women, ages >19 years, who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which was conducted from 2007 to 2014. The presence of asthma and depression was based on self-reported physician diagnosis in the Health Interview Surveys.

resultsThe prevalence of asthma was 2.8% and of depression was 4.1%. Logistic regression analysis showed that single marital status (separated or divorced) (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.291 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 1.077-1.547]), unemployment (aOR 1.226 [95% CI, 1.061-1.417]), under middle school graduated education level (aOR 2.433 [95% CI, 1.867-3.171]), middle school graduated education level (aOR 1.759 [95% CI, 1.330-2.327]), obesity (aOR 1.403 [95% CI, 1.196-1.647]), and depression (aOR 1.796 [95% CI, 1.422-2.267]) were significantly associated with adult asthma; however, sex, age, monthly family income, residential area, smoking status, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus were not associated with adult asthma. Compared with individuals without asthma and with depression, patients with asthma and with depression were prone to be single (separated or divorced) and to have a lower education level (p < 0.01) Conclusion: The present study showed that depression was associated with asthma in Korean adults.
