The relationship between obsessive-compulsive symptoms and depressive symptoms in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder: A network analysis.
Article in Indian journal of psychiatry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Aim: The network model suggests that the comorbidity of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and depression is due to direct interactions between OCD and depression symptoms. The study investigates the network structure of OCD and depressive symptoms in patients with OCD and explores the pathways that connect the OCD and depression symptoms. Materials and Methods: The items of Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Symptom (Y-BOCS) Scale and the Depression Self-Rating Scale of 445 patients with OCD were analyzed by network model. Statistical analysis and visualization of the network were conducted using R software. Results: Two bridge edges "uneasiness" and "time consumed by obsessions" and "low spirit" and "distress caused by obsessions" connected the OCD symptoms to depressive symptoms. Two closely related edges were between "interference due to obsessions" and "interference due to compulsions" and between "difficulty resisting obsessions" and "difficulty resisting compulsions." The symptoms "interference due to compulsions," "distress caused by obsessions," "time consumed by compulsions," and "uneasiness" had the highest expected influence centrality. Conclusions: This study highlighted the relationship between "uneasiness" and "time consumed by obsessions" and between "low spirit" and "distress caused by obsessions." In addition, "interference due to compulsions" is found as the core symptom in the network. Targeting these symptoms may help prevent and treat the comorbidity of obsession-compulsion and depression in patients with OCD.
