Correlation Between Anxiety, Depression, and Patient Tolerance in Patients With no Prior History of Mental Disorders Undergoing Office-Based Laser Surgery: A Case Study.

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
Objective: To investigate tolerance to office-based laser surgery (OBLS) in patients with no prior history of mental illnesses, and to analyze the correlation between patient tolerance, anxiety, and depression using validated questionnaires. Methods: Patients aged 18-65 with no prior history of mental disorders undergoing OBLS from May 2024 to September 2024 were included in this study. All patients completed the Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale-7 (GAD-7) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). After surgery, tolerance was assessed using the IOWA satisfaction with anesthesia scale and a Visual Analog Scale for discomfort. Results: A total of 25 patients were enrolled. Eighteen patients had moderate-severe anxiety and six patients had moderate-severe depression. The mean GAD-7 was 12.32 ± 4.09, and the PHQ-9 score was 6.60 ± 5.43. The mean IOWA score was 1.78 ± 1.07, and the mean VAS for discomfort was 4.60 ± 3.31. There was a moderate negative correlation between IOWA score and GAD-7 score ( Conclusion: The study revealed a high tolerance level despite a high risk for anxiety and depression in a large percentage of our study group. Moreover, there was a mild to moderate negative correlation between anxiety, depression, and patient tolerance. Level of Evidence: 2.
