Depression among patients with acne vulgaris: does disease severity matter?
Article in Archives of dermatological research, 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
Acne vulgaris has a significant impact on an individual's mental health and well-being. To investigate the impact of acne vulgaris on mental health of patients. This case-control study was conducted on 93 patients with acne vulgaris and 93 age- and sex- matched healthy volunteers as control group, using the standard Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire, from November 2020 to March 2021. The depression score was significantly higher in acne sufferers, and was correlated with disease severity. On the other hand, no significant relationship was found between anxiety score and acne. It can also be seen that depression and anxiety are significantly more common in women and also in younger ages. This study pointed out the importance of evaluating depression signs in patients with acne vulgaris, which could have a significant effect on patients' quality of life.
