Analysis of preoperative and postoperative depression and anxiety in patients with calcaneal fractures.
Article in BMC psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeThe aim of this study is to investigate the preoperative and postoperative psychological health status of patients with calcaneal fractures, and to explore the impact of preoperative psychological health status on the prognosis of surgical treatment for calcaneal fracture patients.
methodsThis study included 67 patients with calcaneal fractures who underwent surgical treatment in the Foot and Ankle Surgery Department of Honghui Hospital in Xi'an from November 2019 to September 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on the presence of preoperative anxiety/depression symptoms, with patients exhibiting preoperative anxiety/depression symptoms assigned to Group A and those without such symptoms assigned to Group B. Preoperative and final follow-up assessments were conducted using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Score to evaluate patients.
resultsAmong the 67 patients with complete follow-up for calcaneal fractures, 33 patients exhibited preoperative anxiety/depression symptoms (49.25%). Both Group A and Group B patients showed significant improvements in various evaluation indicators after calcaneal fracture surgery compared to preoperative assessments, but the overall prognosis of Group A was worse than that of Group B.
conclusionsThe preoperative psychological health status of patients is related to postoperative clinical outcomes, and patients with poorer psychological health have a worse prognosis.
