Assessing mental health in individuals near thermal power plants and development of depression predictive model.
Article in Npj mental health research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Depression, anxiety, and stress are major mental health concerns globally, especially in India. This study examines the prevalence of mental health symptoms in overweight and normal BMI individuals living near thermal power plants and develops a depression prediction model using binary logistic regression using the DASS-21 score. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2018 to March 2019, with data collected through face-to-face interviews. Socio-demographic factors like age, gender, cooking fuel type, and income were analyzed. Significant associations were found between stress and household air pollution (p = 0.011, OR = 17.408, 95% CI) and between anxiety and income below 1 lakh in normal BMI individuals (p = 0.045, OR = 0.303, 95% CI). Depression, anxiety, and stress were more prevalent in females. The depression prediction model demonstrated high performance with an ROC-AUC of 0.8754. These findings highlight the need to address environmental and socio-demographic factors to protect mental health in populations living near thermal power plants.
