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

objectiveThe objective of this review is to evaluate the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions on mental health outcomes in adult patients with Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) living in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

introductionMental health issues are highly prevalent among patients with CVDs leading to poor disease prognosis, self-care/ management, and Quality of Life (QOL). In the context of LMICs, where the disease burden and treatment gap are high and resources are inadequate for accessing essential care, effective psychosocial interventions can make significant contributions for improving mental health and reducing mental health problems among patients who live with cardiovascular diseases. INCLUSION CRITERIA: This review will include studies published between 2010 and 2021 that evaluated the effect of psychosocial interventions on mental health outcomes (resilience, self-efficacy, QOL, depression and anxiety) on adult patients (aged ≥18 years) with any cardiovascular diseases using experimental and quasi experimental designs.

methodsThe search will be conducted from the following databases: MEDLINE via OVID (1946-Present), EMBASE via OVID (1974 -Present), Cumulative Index for Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) via EBSCOhost (1936-Present), PsycINFO via OVID (1806-Present), Scopus via Elsevier (1976-Present), and Cochrane Library via Wiley (1992-Present). Data will be critically appraised using standard tools and extracted by two reviewers and disagreement will be solved by the third reviewer. Meta-analysis will be performed, if possible, otherwise, data will be synthesized in narrative and tabular forms. DISCUSSION: The findings of this review will provide a key insight into contextually relevant psychosocial interventions for promoting mental health of patients with CVDs living in LMICs. The review findings will be potentially useful for health care providers and researchers to implement such interventions not only for reducing the burden of mental health issues but also for improving the overall well-being among patients with chronic illnesses.
