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
Background: Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is a highly effective coronary artery disease treatment, providing immediate relief and promising long-term benefits. However, it is a major procedure with significant risks, including the potential for depression. Many patients experience depression following CABG, which can negatively impact their overall recovery, affecting both physical and mental health. Objective: This study aimed to determine factors predicting depression in patients following CABG surgery. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with data collected between January and April 2024. A total of 272 post-CABG patients from two super tertiary care hospitals in Bangkok, Thailand, were recruited through purposive sampling. All research instruments were validated and tested for reliability. Data were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. Results: The study found that hope, optimism, illness perception, social support, and anxiety were correlated with depression (adjusted Conclusion: Nurses play a vital role in preventing and managing depression in post-CABG patients. Screening for anxiety and addressing it can prevent depression, enhance social support, and improve outcomes. To develop effective nursing strategies, it is essential for nurses to assess anxiety and implement interventions that promote social support, optimism, and illness perception. These measures can improve care quality, reduce readmission rates, and enhance patients' overall quality of life.
