1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveto estimate the prevalence and factors associated with anxiety and depression in patients recovering from COVID-19.

methoda cross-sectional study conducted with 381 patients four months after SARS-COV-2 infection. Sociodemographic and clinical-epidemiological data were collected, as well as information about the incidence of stressful events related to the COVID-19 pandemic, by means of a questionnaire and by applying the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Descriptive and inferential analyses with binary logistic regression were performed to identify the associated factors.

resultsthe prevalence of possible and probable anxiety and depression was 46.45% and 22.31%, respectively. Fear of contracting COVID-19 again, previous history of mental disorders and family history of chronic diseases were associated with higher chances of anxiety and depression. Family incomes of up to one minimum wage and presence of comorbidities were associated with depression; in turn, having a job proved to be a protective factor in the case of anxiety.

conclusionhigh prevalence of anxiety and depression was observed in the post-COVID-19 period, associated with psychosocial, clinical and socioeconomic factors and evidencing the need for screening and mental health care strategies targeted at this population group.
