Restricted economic activity due to health conditions and risk of depression: results from the Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. 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
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the association between the restricted economic activity due to health conditions and risk of depression, and further evaluate the differences in this association according to gender and across the older people. Methods: Data from the KLoSA from 2006 to 2016 was used and 10,144 research samples were included at baseline at 2006. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) model was applied in this longitudinal analysis. Results: Of the 10,144 individuals at baseline 2006, the odds ratio (OR) of depressive symptoms in those responding "very probable" on restricted economic activity was 2.88 times higher ( Conclusion: This study demonstrated that restricted economic activity due to adverse health conditions was associated with risk of depression, especially among men between the ages of 45 ~ 64. These results suggest that in order to improve mental health in the middle-aged people, public health interventions are needed to sustain economic activity.
