Prevalence and predictors of postpartum depression in women in Kosovo.

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
backgroundPostpartum depression (PPD) is a common mood disorder affecting women's mental health.
objectivesThis study aimed to explore the prevalence and predictors of PPD among women in Kosovo, including maternal age, economic status, mode of delivery, infant diet, and social support.
designThis is a quantitative cross-sectional study. Data were collected within a specified time.
methodsThe Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) were administered to 192 women aged 18 to 49 years. Percentage, Kruskal-Wallis, Spearman's correlation, and regression analyses were used to analyze the data based on the research hypotheses.
resultsThe prevalence of possible PPD disorder was 49.5%. Significant differences were found in average depression based on economic status, maternal age, and diet. Although there were differences in the ranking of the means, no significant differences were found in the modes of delivery. Spearman's correlational analysis showed a significant negative relationship between PPD and the subdimensions of social support, especially family support (ρ = -0.57,
conclusionThese findings highlight the crucial role of social support in alleviating PPD and underscore the importance of providing support during this period to facilitate better outcomes.
