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

Investigating the proportion of depression and anxiety in patients with pulmonary nodules (PNs) and exploring the factors influencing them may help to optimize PNs management protocols and guide clinical decision-making. This study employed a cross-sectional design and included 260 patients attending the hospital's outpatient clinic. The assessment of depression and anxiety in patients with PNs was conducted using the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), respectively. Demographic and clinical data were also collected. The factors influencing depression and anxiety in patients with PNs were analyzed using univariate analysis and binary logistic regression. The proportion of depression and anxiety in patients with PNs was 23.46% and 31.54%, respectively. The results of the binary logistic regression analysis indicated that insomnia (odds ratio [OR] = 7.343, 95%CI: 3.231-16.687) and loss of appetite (OR = 3.432, 95%CI: 1.474-7.991) were identified as independent risk factors for depression. The history of occupational exposure (OR = 4.154, 95%CI: 1.089-15.844), insomnia (OR = 4.162, 95% CI: 2.119-8.175), loss of appetite (OR = 2.326, 95%CI: 1.013-5.341), and chest tightness (OR = 3.155, 95% CI: 1.392-7.149) were significant independent predictors of anxiety. This study demonstrates that depression and anxiety are common with PNs in traditional Chinese medicine hospital. Insomnia and loss of appetite are independent risk factors for depression. History of occupational exposure, insomnia, loss of appetite, and chest tightness are independent risk factors for anxiety. Therefore, medical workers should pay close attention to the mood changes of these high-risk patients.
