Dysfunctional attitude and childhood maltreatment predict future recurrence among young adults with first-onset depression: a prospective cohort study.
Article in BMC psychiatry, 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
backgroundThe high prevalence of recurrent depressive episodes (RDE) among patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) has resulted in substantial personal, societal, and financial burdens. Although many studies have explored the factors associated with RDE, most have important methodological limitations. This study aims to examine the factors associated with RDE within two years among young adults with first-episode MDD.
methodA total of 324 patients aged 18 to 30 years with a first episode of MDD completed both the baseline assessment and the two-year follow-up. Personal, psychosocial, and illness-related variables were assessed at baseline. The status of RDE and medication use were evaluated at follow-up. Network analysis and logistic regression were performed to examine variables associated with RDE.
resultsThe two-year prevalence of RDE among patients with first-episode MDD was 42.28%. The network comparison test indicated no significant differences in network structure or global strength between the recurrence and non-recurrence groups. The edge difference test identified 19 significant differences between the two networks; however, none remained significant after FDR correction. Both network analysis and logistic regression showed that RDE was associated with medication use, followed by the 'vulnerability' subscale of dysfunctional attitudes and childhood emotional abuse.
conclusionsThese findings suggest that dysfunctional attitudes, childhood emotional abuse, and medication use may have potential value in understanding the RDE.
