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
Depression is prevalence in patients with laryngeal cancer. In this study, we aim to investigate whether psychological intervention could reduce the depression of patients receiving cancer treatment. In this study, 258 patients with laryngeal cancer were assigned into two groups with or without psychological intervention. The depression symptoms of all patients were assessed using Hamilton depression rating scale (HAMD) and Hamilton anxiety rating scale (HAMA). Europe Organization for research and Treatment of cancer Quality of life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) was used to measure the life quality of the participants. Other measurements including general attitudes towards psychology services, hospitalization duration and expenses were analyzed. We found that patients with intervention showed more positive attitudes towards psychology services compared to those in control group. Hospitalization duration and expenses were significantly less in intervention group compared to control group. In addition, the intervention group showed a significantly lower HAMD and HAMA scores and improved life quality than control group. Patients aged lower than 40 years showed more obvious reductions in HAMD and HAMA scores and better life quality compared to older patients. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that psychological intervention was necessary and effective in patients with laryngeal cancer during treatment.
