Depressive and anxiety symptoms in postpartum women after recovery from COVID-19: a questionnaire-based observational study.
Observational study in Frontiers in public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Previous studies on the association between recovery from Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection and postpartum depressive and anxiety symptoms had conflicting results. This study aimed to investigate the psychological burdens among postpartum women who had experienced COVID-19 infection during their pregnancies and those who had not. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Taichung Veterans General Hospital in Taiwan from April 2022 to January 2023. A total of 113 postpartum women completed self-reported questionnaires, including the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), in the postpartum clinics or wards. Results: Fifty-four individuals (47%) who experienced COVID-19 infection during their pregnancies and 59 uninfected women completed the questionnaires. The mean EPDS scores were 5.00 ± 4.26 vs. 6.46 ± 4.50 ( Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that COVID-19 infection during pregnancy was associated with fewer postpartum depressive symptoms based on linear regression analysis, with no significant difference in postpartum anxiety symptoms.
