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

unlabelledDepression compromises diabetes treatment in juveniles, and this study aimed to identify influential targets most likely to improve adherence to treatment and glycemic control. Prospective observational studies investigating associations between depression and treatment adherence in juveniles with type 1 diabetes were extracted from MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Cochrane Central. Nineteen studies comprising 2,935 juveniles met our criteria. Median effect sizes between depression and treatment adherence were 0.22 (interquartile range (IQR), 0.16–0.35) by patient and 0.13 (IQR, 0.12–0.24) caregiver report. Corresponding values for depression/glycemic control were 0.16 (IQR, 0.09– 0.23) and 0.08 (IQR, 0.04–0.14), respectively. Effect sizes varied with study design, publication year and assessment tools: CES-D yielded a higher effect size than other assessment tools for depression, where associations for depression and either adherence or glycemic control was investigated. Several behaviours influenced adherence and glycemic control.

conclusionThis study showed moderate associations between depression and poor treatment adherence. Targeting behaviour and social environments, however, may ultimately provide more cost-effective health gains than targeting depressive symptoms.
