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

Background: In this study, we aimed to evaluate levels of depression and anxiety symptoms, childhood trauma, and dissociative experiences in patients with allergic rhinitis (AR) and compare them with healthy controls. Additionally, investigate the association between childhood trauma, depressive symptoms, and dissociative experiences in AR patients. Methods: The study sample consisted of 152 adults (76 AR patients and 76 healthy controls) who presented to the otorhinolaryngology outpatient clinic. Data were collected using a personal information form and standardized self-report scales for childhood trauma (Childhood Trauma Questionnaire - CTQ-28), anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale - HADS), and dissociative experiences (Dissociative Experiences Scale - DES). Results: Significant differences were found between the patient and control groups in terms of all parameters (p<0.05). The patient group showed significantly higher levels of childhood trauma, anxiety and depressive symptoms, and dissociative experiences. Correlation analyses revealed a significant correlation between childhood trauma and both depressive symptoms and dissociative experiences in AR patients. Furthermore, regression analysis showed that childhood trauma significantly contributed to the severity of depression in AR patients, while the presence of dissociative symptoms further increased the risk of depression. Conclusions: This study presents evidence of a positive association between childhood trauma, depression, and dissociative experiences in allergic rhinitis, highlighting their potential roles as risk factors for the condition. Therefore, psychiatric evaluation is crucial and necessary for treatment success in AR patients.
