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
objectiveThe standardization of warfarin anticoagulant therapy is the key to lifelong treatment for patients after heart valve replacement. The present study explored the possible risk factors for anxiety and depression during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and analyzed the influence of psychological state on medication safety.
methodsEligible patients received a web-based questionnaire survey via the Wenjuanxing platform during outpatient visits. Depression was evaluated by the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS). Anxiety was evaluated by the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). Medication adherence was evaluated by the Morisky scale.
resultsA total of 309 patients (aged 52.2±11.4 years) were included in the present study. The SDS score of all included patients was 36.9±9.4 points, of which 11 (3.6%) patients were diagnosed as having depression. The SAS score of all included patients was 43.1±9.3 points, of which 71 (23%) patients were diagnosed as having anxiety. Seven patients (2.3%) had both anxiety and depression. Logistic regression analysis revealed that only monthly income was an independent influencing factor for depression. Regarding anxiety, patients who underwent repeated operations had a 2.264-fold greater risk, and patients who received combination medication had a 2.140-fold greater risk. More bleeding events and coagulation disorders could be observed in patients with anxiety, depression or both. When anxiety occurred, patients showed worse medication adherence. However, depression had no significant effect on medication adherence.
conclusionDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, the detection rate of mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression was high, which seriously affected the medication safety of warfarin. Analysis of its influencing factors will provide a reference for further standardized regulation of warfarin anticoagulant therapy after valve replacement.
