Comorbidity Among Adults With Epilepsy - United States, 2021-2022.
Article in Preventing chronic disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
While it is known that epilepsy often co-occurs with psychiatric disorders, few studies have examined nonpsychiatric comorbidity. We analyzed 2021 and 2022 National Health Interview Survey Sample Adult data. Compared with adults with no epilepsy, the 1.2% of US adults (about 3.0 million) with active epilepsy had a higher prevalence of nearly all 21 conditions examined and were more likely to have 4 or more co-occurring chronic conditions. Health care and social service providers can promote healthy behaviors and preventive screening for common comorbidities, improve access to care, and refer people with epilepsy to evidence-based self-management programs.
