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
backgroundLate life depression (LLD), a common mental disorder, has become an increasingly acute public health concern with a quickly expanding geriatric population worldwide. To our knowledge, however, the incidence of LLD in northern cities in China has not been empirically investigated, and many elderly people with depressive moods and mild depressive symptoms have not been given sufficient attention. METHODS/
designThis is a multi-stage and prospective study. The first stage is a cross-sectional study, investigating the epidemiological characteristics of LLD in northern China and exploring the biological, psychological, and social risk factors for developing LLD based on a set of questionnaires from 6,800 community-residing elderly adults. The second stage involves statistical analysis, by constructing a risk factor model for LLD and analyzing their direct and indirect functional routes on the basis of structural equation modeling. The third stage is an experimental study a total of 60 elderly patients with LLD and their principle caregivers will be randomly assigned to control and trial groups. The trial group patients and caregivers will undergo supportive psychosocial, drug treatment, and health education (PDH) intervention, whereas the control group patients and caregivers will be treated routinely (treatment as routine, TAR, which includes drug treatment and health education). At the end of the intervention, depressive symptoms, quality of life, and the social and cognitive functioning of the patients in the two groups will be respectively assessed at a baseline and after 6, 9, and 12 months post-intervention by employing scales and questionnaires to analyze the effectiveness of the supportive PDH intervention measures in comparison with TAR. Ultimately, a supportive PDH intervention and health management model will be obtained by combining PDH intervention with mental health institutions, community health services, and aging families as the main line. DISCUSSION: This study will provide strong and suitable evidence for enhancing the integrated supportive PDH intervention and health management model of LLD patients among community-dwelling residents. ETHICS: This study has been approved by the Ethics and Research Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University (approval No. [2019] 2019-312-2).
