Association of Depression, Poor Mental Health Status and Asthma Control Patterns in US Adults Using a Data-Reductive Latent Class Method.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Objectives To explore the association between depression, poor mental health status, and asthma control patterns among US adults using a latent class analysis (LCA) approach. Methods We used data from 10,337 adults aged 18 years and above from the 2016 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) Asthma Call-back Survey. Data-reductive LCA was used to derive asthma control patterns in the population using class variables indicative of asthma control. Besides univariate analysis, adjusted and unadjusted logistic regression models were used to examine the association of depression and poor mental health on the derived asthma control patterns. Results About 27.8% of adults aged <55 reported depression, while 27.3% aged ≥55 years were depressed. The latent class prevalence of asthma control patterns was 42.8%, 31.1%, and 26.1%, corresponding to good, fair, and poor asthma control patterns, respectively. In adults aged <55 years, odds of depression (OR=1.52, 95% CI=1.27-1.82) and poor mental health (OR=1.58, 95% CI=1.27-1.96) were higher in the poor asthma control group compared to the good asthma control group. Odds for depression (OR=1.28, 95% CI=1.06-1.53) were also higher in the moderate asthma control group compared to the good asthma control group. Among those aged ≥55 years, depression odds (OR=1.57, 95% CI=1.31-1.87) were higher in only the poor asthma control group. Conclusions These findings may have public health implications. Detecting, screening, and treating depression and mental health disorders may help improve asthma control in people with asthma.
