Analysis of depression prevalence and associated influencing factors in maintenance hemodialysis patients.

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
Background: Hemodialysis is a common and effective treatment method for end-stage renal disease, but it is associated with adverse reactions, which may impair patients' daily functioning and contribute to psychological burden. This study aims to investigate the prevalence of depression in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and its correlation with self-care ability. Methods: A total of 152 MHD patients were enrolled in this study. Depression was assessed using the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), with SDS scores ≥ 53 classified as the depression group and < 53 as the non-depression group. Self-care ability was assessed using the Barthel Index (BI). General clinical data and self-care ability were compared between the two groups. The correlation between depression and self-care ability (including basic mobility, spontaneous excretion, physical activity, and total scores) was analyzed in the depression group. Results: Among 152 patients, 82 exhibited depressive symptoms (39 mild, 35 moderate, and 8 severe). The depression and non-depression groups showed statistically significant differences in occupation and education level ( Conclusion: The prevalence of depression is high among MHD patients, and depressive symptoms are closely associated with impaired self-care ability.
