Article in Research square, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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/objective: Depression is a complex mental health disorder influenced by various social determinants of health (SDOH) at individual and community levels. Area-level factors and intersectionality framework, which considers overlapping personal identities, are used in this paper to get a nuanced picture of depression disparities. Methods: This cross-sectional study uses electronic health records data from the All of Us research network. Our study cohort includes 20,042 individuals who completed the SDOH surveys in All of Us and had at least one in-patient visit, with 27.3% diagnosed with depression since 2020. We used depression diagnosis as an outcome, while independent variables include US Religious Census and American urvey responses, area-level variables, sociodemographic characteristics: age group, income, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, marital status, and race/ethnicity - and the interactions of the latter with each other and with other variables. The association between depression diagnosis and the variables is reported by fitting the logistic regression model on the subset of variables identified by LASSO method. Results: The analysis revealed that area-level indicators, such as religious adherence and childbirth rates, significantly influenced depression outcomes when interacting with personal identity variables: area-level religious adherence was associated with increased depression odds for women (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.15-1.54) and non-binary individuals (OR 3.70, 95% CI 1.03-13.31). Overlapping identities, such as younger adults unemployed for less than a year and never married Middle Eastern and North African participants showed higher depression odds (OR 2.3, 95% CI 1.06-4.99, and OR 3.35, 95% CI 1.19-9.45, respectively). Discussion/Conclusion: The findings underscore the importance of considering all types of factors: individual, area-level, and intersectional in depression research.
