1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThe co-existence of chronic pain conditions with anxiety and/or depression is common in the general population but poorly described during pregnancy. In this study, we sought to describe trends in chronic pain among a sample of delivering people and describe the co-existence of chronic pain with anxiety and/or depression among delivering people.

methodsThis cross-sectional study used data from Optum's de-identified Clinformatics® Data Mart Database between 2008 and 2021, for delivering persons with coverage by single employer-based health plan. We computed predicted margins from generalized estimating equations to determine the marginal predicted probability of chronic pain among all delivering and non-delivering persons who identify as women with and without diagnosed anxiety and/or depression.

resultsMusculoskeletal and pelvic pain occurred most often regardless of delivering status. Delivering persons with anxiety and/or depression had higher marginal predicted probabilities of chronic pain compared to all delivering persons. Between 2008 and 2021, the predicted probabilities ranged from 0.400 to 0.527 and 0.221-0.261, respectively.

conclusionChronic pain conditions are common in pregnancy and nearly two times higher among individuals with anxiety and/or depression. The frequency of comorbid depression and/or anxiety with pain disorders among delivering persons highlights the importance of proper detection, coordination of care, and safe treatment options for this population.
