The effect of lifestyle modification on depression among myocardial infarction patients after revascularisation.

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
backgroundPatients with coronary artery disease (CAD) are prone to depression, and its presence is associated with poor adverse cardiac outcomes. Although lifestyle modification (LSM) has been shown to be beneficial in managing depression in patients with CAD, it is not known whether the mode of cardiac intervention [(coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) versus percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)] influences the outcome.
objectivesWe examined the prevalence of depression among myocardial infarction (MI) patients after revascularisation and compared the effect of LSM on incidence of depression in patients who underwent CABG versus PCI.
methodsWe evaluated the risk-factor profile, depression characteristics and lifestyle changes of 100 consecutive participants undergoing coronary revascularisation over a 15-month period (January 2017 to May 2018). The Beck depression inventory II (BDI-II) was used to assess depression and the Goldin leisure-time exercise (GLTE) questionnaire to assess physical activity (PA).
resultsOne hundred patients were recruited (mean age: males 60.73 ± 4.52 years, females 60.29 ± 3.64 years) but five dropped out, leaving 95 patients for complete analysis. Most of the patients were low-income earners [53 (53.0%)], and 21 (21.0%) had tertiary-level education. The majority had multiple CAD risk factors and co-morbidities (79.0%). Prior to the LSM programme, 51 patients (51.0%) had depression and depressive traits [CABG 34 (66.7%) vs PCI 17 (33.3%),
conclusionsDepression and depressive traits are common among subjects undergoing coronary revascularisation, more so among CABG than PCI participants. LSM reduced the prevalence of depression and depressive traits, with fully compliant CABG versus PCI groups deriving nearly the same benefits from the LSM regime. No significant reduction in incidence of depression was recorded among LSM partly compliant patients. This study suggests that failure to implement lifestyle changes and engage in PA are major barriers to managing depression after coronary revascularisation.
