Mental health impairment among children with atopic dermatitis: A United States population-based cross-sectional study of the 2013-2017 National Health Interview Survey.

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
backgroundAtopic dermatitis (AD) is associated with mental health disorders, but its impact on global mental health symptoms is less clear.
objectiveTo determine the association between pediatric AD and mental health impairment.
methodsIn a cross-sectional study using 2013-2017 United States National Health Interview Survey data, children with and without AD were assessed for mental disorder with impairment (MDI) using a validated behavioral screening questionnaire. Mental health services utilization was also reported.
resultsThe prevalence of any MDI was 26.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 25.1-28.3) among children with AD and 17.7% (95% CI, 17.2-18.2) among those without AD, with severe MDI being present in 10.9% (95% CI 9.9-12.1) and 6.2% (95% CI 5.9-6.5), respectively. Adjusted for sociodemographic factors, AD was associated with higher odds of MDI (odds ratio, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.39-1.67), including impairments in conduct, emotions, peer relationships, and attention. Among children with AD, 19.9% (95% CI, 16.6-23.8) and 53.5% (95% CI, 48.5-58.5) of those with mild or severe MDI, respectively, had seen a mental health professional in the last year. LIMITATIONS: Misclassification bias may arise from self-reported data.
conclusionAD is associated with clinically significant mental health symptoms, but many affected children may not seek or receive care for their symptoms.
