1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionDepression is a prevalent, debilitating, and potentially life-threatening disorder that affects millions of people worldwide and is influenced by multiple factors.

objectiveTo examine the influence of sociodemographic, socioeconomic, and health-related factors on depression in the Peruvian adult population using data from a nationally representative survey conducted between 2020 and 2022.

methodsA descriptive analysis of the variables was conducted, followed by a bivariate analysis using the Chi-square test with the Rao-Scott correction. Subsequently, a multivariate analysis was performed using a Poisson multiple regression model with robust variance to estimate adjusted prevalence ratios (aPR) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

resultsThe study included 72 334 participants aged 18 to 97 and identified an increased likelihood of depression among older adults (≥60 years; aPR = 1.18 [1.08, 1.29]); single individuals (aPR = 1.33 [1.22, 1.45]); separated individuals (aPR = 1.32 [1.18, 1.47]); divorced or widowed individuals (aPR = 1.44 [1.34, 1.56]); residents of the Sierra region (aPR = 1.41 [1.30, 1.53]); economically inactive individuals (aPR = 1.08 [1.01, 1.16]); individuals with disabilities (aPR = 1.50 [1.28, 1.77]); those diagnosed with hypertension (aPR = 1.45 [1.33, 1.58]) or diabetes (aPR = 1.42 [1.27, 1.59]); and those who smoke monthly (aPR = 1.32 [1.19, 1.48]). Conversely, being male (aPR = 0.50 [0.46, 0.54]), having a higher level of education (secondary or above; aPR = 0.69 [0.62, 0.76]), residing on the coast (aPR = 0.83 [0.76, 0.91]) or in the jungle region (aPR = 0.87 [0.79, 0.96]), living in a rural area (aPR = 0.85 [0.78, 0.93]), and having a higher wealth index (aPR = 0.81 [0.71, 0.94]) were associated with a lower likelihood of depression.

conclusionsIn conclusion, depression is significantly associated with various sociodemographic, socioeconomic, and health factors.
