Residence with a Person Who Used Substances and Childhood Anxiety and Depression: A Cross-Sectional Analysis of the 2019 National Health Interview Survey.

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
backgroundChildren who live with a parent with a substance use disorder (SUD) are more likely to experience adverse health outcomes, including mental health disorders. We assessed whether residing with anyone who used substances was associated with children's anxiety and/or depression, and whether these associations differed by the children's age or sex.
methodsWe analyzed nationally representative cross-sectional data from the 2019 National Health Interview Survey (n = 6642). The associations between ever residing with someone who used substances and caregiver-reported children's anxiety and depression frequency (never/a few times a year/monthly/weekly/daily) were estimated using multinomial logistic regression models, adjusted for children's age, children's sex, children's race/ethnicity, annual household income, and highest educational attainment by an adult in the household. We assessed whether the associations differed based on the children's age (5-11/12-17 years) or sex.
resultsChildren who had resided with someone who used substances were more likely to be reported by their caregiver as having daily anxiety (risk ratio (RR) = 2.84; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.04, 3.95; referent = never anxious) and daily depression (RR = 3.35; 95% CI = 1.98, 5.67; referent = never depressed). Associations with more frequent anxiety were stronger among adolescents than younger children. Associations between residing with someone who used substances and depression frequency differed based on children's age and sex.
conclusionsOur results suggest that residing with someone who used substances is associated with children's anxiety and depression. Our findings can help inform screening and treatment efforts for anxiety and depression among children, as well as for the person using substances.
