Analyzing adolescent mental health: Correlates of depression and anxiety through big data analytics.

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: Conventional scale-based diagnostic approaches are increasingly insufficient for addressing the growing mental health challenges among adolescents. Leveraging advances in artificial intelligence, this study aims to develop an accurate, efficient, and scalable model for early identification of adolescent depression risk using large-scale census data, and to identify key daily life factors associated with mental health outcomes. Methods: Data were obtained from the 2021 National Survey of Children's Health, including 50,892 adolescents and 463 variables. Based on prior literature, 60 relevant variables were selected. Three progressively structured hypotheses concerning the relationships between adolescent depression and developmental environments were proposed. Machine learning models, including decision trees, XGBoost, support vector machines, and neural networks, were applied to predict depression risk. Mediation analysis was conducted to examine the pathways through which living conditions influence mental health. Results: The optimal model demonstrated strong predictive performance, achieving an accuracy of 0.85 and an AUC exceeding 0.87. Feature importance analysis identified several key predictors. Mediation analysis indicated that living conditions exerted a direct effect of 0.225 on mental health, while physical activity and diet quality partially mediated this relationship. Conclusion: Living conditions are critical indicators for early identification of adolescent depression risk. The use of nationwide census data enables timely screening and targeted intervention. Improving dietary habits and increasing physical activity may serve as effective preventive strategies for adolescent mental health disorders.
