Two-scale assessment of anxiety and depression in postoperative non-small cell lung cancer patients: their prevalence, risk factors, and prognostic potency.

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
objectiveAnxiety and depression commonly occur and correlate with poor prognosis in patients with cancer. The study aimed to assess the anxiety and depression in patients with postsurgical non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using both Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Self-Rating Anxiety/Depression Scale (SAS/SDS) and to investigate their risk factors and linkage with prognosis.
methodsHADS and SAS/SDS were assessed in 350 patients with NSCLC at 3 months after surgical resection and 100 healthy controls (HCs). Patients with NSCLC were followed up for a median period of 27.0 (range: 6.0-52.0) months for prognostic evaluation.
resultsHADS-identified anxiety rate (39.7% vs. 10.0%, P < 0.001), SAS-identified anxiety rate (34.9% vs. 9.0%, P < 0.001), HADS-identified depression rate (29.7% vs. 5.0%, P < 0.001), and SDS-identified depression rate (27.1% vs. 6.0%, P < 0.001) were all elevated in patients with NSCLC vs. HCs. Multivariate logistic regression analysis uncovered that diabetes, adjuvant therapy, postoperative complications, and poor differentiation were independently linked with increased HADS- or SAS-identified anxiety risk (all P < 0.05); meanwhile, female gender, hypertension, diabetes, poor differentiation, adjuvant therapy, postoperative complications, and TNM stage were independently linked with increased HADS- or SDS-identified depression risk (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, HADS-identified anxiety, SAS-identified anxiety, HADS-identified depression, and SDS-identified depression independently predicted shorter disease-free survival and overall survival (all P < 0.05).
conclusionAnxiety and depression are prevalent and linked with poor survival in patients with postsurgical NSCLC. Meanwhile, gender, comorbidities, advanced tumor features, adjuvant therapy, and postoperative complications relate to the prevalence of anxiety and depression.
