1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveWe assessed levels of anxiety and depression in patients with Crohn disease (CD) to identify predictors of health-related quality of life (HRQOL).

methodsIn this case-control study, we enrolled 50 adult patients with CD and 50 matched, healthy controls. All participants completed self-administered questionnaires including the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36), and Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ, patients only). We analyzed the relationship between HRQOL and influencing factors.

resultsMean total scores on the SAS, SDS, and SF-36 were significantly different between patients and controls. IBDQ scores among patients in the active phase of CD were significantly lower than those in remission phase. SF-36 scores were significantly lower in patients with CD compared with healthy controls. SF-36 scores among patients with active CD were significantly lower than scores among those in remission, and SF-36 scores in patients without complications were significantly higher than in those with complications. SF-36 scores in patients with good nutritional status were also significantly higher than scores in malnourished patients with CD.

conclusionsDepression, anxiety, disease activity, complications, and nutritional status were predictive factors of decreased HRQOL in patients with CD.
