Housing size, parental socioeconomic status, and associations with depressive symptoms among adolescents: a cross-sectional study in Guangzhou, China.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundsRelatively few studies have focused on the associations between family-related factors and adolescents' mental health in China. This study aimed at investigating the associations between per capita living space, parental socioeconomic status, and depressive symptoms among adolescents.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional survey to investigate the mental health of adolescents in Guangzhou, China. Per capita living space was calculated by dividing the total housing size by the number of residents. Parental socioeconomic status included the education and employment status. Depressive symptoms were measured with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Mixed logistic regression analyses with school as a random intercept were used to explore the association between per capita living space, socioeconomic status, and depressive symptoms. Restrictive cubic spline (RCS) was used to examine whether the relationship between per capita living space and depression was linear.
resultsCompared with adolescents living in a house with per capita living space less than 10 m
conclusionsOur study highlights the significant and complex influence of family-related social determinants including per capita living space and parental socioeconomic status on adolescents' depressive symptoms. Extremely small living spaces are associated with depressive symptoms, moderate spaces are linked to less depression, while excessively large spaces offer no additional benefit. Prevention to promote adolescents' mental health should prioritize adolescents with these socioeconomic disadvantages. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: not applicable.
