Anxiety, depression and associated factors among caretakers of children with atopic dermatitis.
Article in Annals of general psychiatry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms among caretakers of children with atopic dermatitis (AD) and associated factors is unclear. The study was designed to explore anxiety and depression symptoms among caretakers of AD, and screen factors associated with anxiety and depression symptoms.
methodsA total of 901 children with AD and their caretakers were continuously enrolled and interviewed at dermatology department of Capital Institute of Pediatrics, Beijing, China. Children's medication was administered by their caretakers. Caretakers' anxiety and depression symptoms were evaluated by Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17 and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, while medication compliance was evaluated and divided into poor (< 6 points), moderate (6-7 points), and good (> 7 points) by Morisky Medication Adherence Scale. Multilevel ordered logistic regression was used to screen factors associated with caretakers' anxiety and depression.
resultsAmong caretakers, 41.5% had anxiety symptoms, 39.6% had depression symptoms, 51.4% have any of the two and 29.7% had both of the two. Factors associated with caretakers' anxiety symptoms included longer duration of the illness (OR, 0.99, 95% CI 0.98-0.99) and taking care of children with severe AD (OR, 2.55, 95% CI 1.43-4.55). Factors associated with caretakers' depression symptoms included higher educational level (OR, 0.56, 95% CI 0.39-0.80), taking care of children with moderate (OR, 2.01, 95% CI 1.15-3.50) and severe AD (OR, 3.99, 95% CI 2.10-7.59) and poor medication compliance (OR, 3.45, 95% CI 1.13-10.56).
conclusionsPrevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms among caretakers of AD were high. Attention should be paid to caretakers of AD at higher risk for those psychological problems.
