Characteristics Associated with Good Self-Perceived Mental Health among United States Adults with Arthritis.

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
Mental health disorders are prevalent among United States (US) adults with arthritis. Yet, little is known about characteristics associated with mental health among US adults with arthritis. This retrospective cross-sectional study used 2019 Medical Expenditures Panel Survey data to assess the association between multiple personal characteristics and mental health status among US adults with arthritis. Hierarchical logistic regression models modeled associations between personal characteristics and mental health status. Model 1 included predisposing factors, model 2 included predisposing and enabling factors, while model 3 included predisposing, enabling, and need factors. The a priori alpha level was 0.05. Analyses accounted for the complex survey design and were weighted to produce national estimates. Among 28,512 individuals, 4984 met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 4181 had good mental health (85.5%, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 84.3%, 86.7%). The following characteristics were associated with good mental health status in the final adjusted model: age 18-64 vs. ≥65 (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 0.29, 95% CI = 0.12, 0.71), Midwest vs. West census region (AOR = 5.17, 95% CI = 1.63, 16.46), no degree vs. higher than high school education (AOR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.12, 0.92), and high school diploma vs. higher than high school education (AOR = 0.40, 95% CI = 0.18, 0.86). In conclusion, this study suggests such characteristics may be targeted to help improve mental health among this population. Additional efforts are needed to help satisfy the unmet need for mental healthcare among this population.
