Anxiety and depression in rheumatoid arthritis patients: prevalence, risk factors and consistency between the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Zung's Self-rating Anxiety Scale/Depression Scale.
Article in Rheumatology advances in practice, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
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
Objectives: The aim was to explore the prevalence and independent risk factors for anxiety and depression in RA patients and to assess the consistency between the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS) and Zung's self-rating anxiety scale/depression scale (SAS/SDS). Methods: In total, 160 RA patients and 60 healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled consecutively, and HADS and SAS/SDS were completed. Results: The HADS-defined anxiety rate, HADS-defined depression rate, SAS-defined anxiety rate and SDS-defined depression rate were 36.9, 36.3, 29.4 and 29.4%, respectively, in RA patients, all of which were much higher in RA patients than in HCs (all Conclusion: Anxiety and depression are highly prevalent in RA patients and are independently correlated with single/divorced/widowed marital status and higher disease activity. In addition, the HADS presents a high consistency with the SAS/SDS with many fewer questions, which might be more suitable for long-term assessment of RA.
