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

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the association between occupational participation and depressive symptoms among middle-aged adults in Hokkaido, Japan. Methods: Community-dwelling adults aged 40-64 years were recruited using snowball sampling, and 165 participants who returned the questionnaires and met the selection criteria were included in the analysis. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) scale. Occupational participation, including three domains (leisure, productivity, and self-care) and three aspects (occupational control, occupational balance, and satisfaction of performance), was assessed using Self-completed Occupational Performance Index (SOPI) questionnaire. Results: Multivariate-adjusted regression analysis revealed that depressive symptoms were associated with lower occupational participation in the productivity domain (β = -0.34, Conclusion: Depressive symptoms was significantly associated with low occupational participation in productivity domain in middle-aged adults. In the domains of leisure and self-care, significant associations were found only between depression symptoms and satisfaction of performance. Occupational therapy interventions for middle-aged adults targeting the maintenance and improvement of participation in productive activities may help preventing depressive symptoms.
