The effect of depression and anxiety on survival in patients with glioma: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Journal of neuro-oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07409584 (Mental Health and Suicidality in Glioblastoma Patients in Germany - a Multicenter Observational Study), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
purposeDepression and anxiety's impact on glioma patient survival lacks consensus. Understanding these effects can highlight the importance of identifying depression and anxiety in glioma patients, and inform future treatments. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to clarify the impact of depression and anxiety on glioma patient survival.
methodsWe conducted a systematic literature search of major databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, Cochrane Library, and PsycINFO, from inception to June 2023, to identify relevant studies. Eligible studies were those that examined the association between depression, anxiety, or both, and survival outcomes in glioma patients. Data were extracted and analyzed using fixed-effects meta-analysis models to calculate pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
resultsA total of 15 studies met the inclusion criteria, encompassing a diverse range of glioma patients across different clinical settings and stages. The meta-analysis revealed a statistically significant association between depression and reduced overall survival in glioma patients, with a pooled HR of 1.65 (95% CI: 1.41-1.83, 11 studies). The preliminary univariate meta-regression results indicate no impact of individual study characteristics on the effect size. Likewise, anxiety was associated with worse overall survival, with a pooled HR of 1.65 (95% CI: 1.18-2.31, 5 studies).
conclusionsThis meta-analysis underscores the vital need to identify and treat depression and anxiety in glioma patients. Future research should explore the underlying mechanisms, aiding the creation of interventions enhancing both mental health and clinical outcomes for this vulnerable group.
