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

purposeAdvanced cancer patients have nutrition impact symptoms (NISs), while many of them have depressive moods. This study aimed to determine the associations of NISs with depression.

methodsThis study was a secondary analysis. The dietary intake and 19 NISs in patients receiving palliative care were evaluated using 10-point scales, and the patients were categorized into two groups (non-depression and depression groups) using the cutoff based on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). To determine associations between depression and the number of NISs with a score of ≥ 4, the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the logistic regression model were calculated.

resultsA total of 225 participants were divided into the non-depression group (n = 148) and the depression group (n = 77). The prevalence of depression was 34.2%. Dietary intake was lower, and the number of NISs with a score of ≥ 4 was higher in the depression group (both p < 0.001). All NISs were more severe in the depression group. Significant differences were observed in 15 of the 19 NISs. In the logistic regression model, significantly higher adjusted ORs were observed in the groups with 4-6 NISs and 7 or more NISs with a score of ≥ 4 (10.76 [95% CI, 2.07-55.91], p = 0.016; 17.02 [95% CI, 3.08-94.22], p < 0.001) than in the group with no NISs with a score of ≥ 4.

conclusionHaving four or more NISs with a score ≥ 4 was associated with depression.
