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

backgroundOverweight/obese adolescents show higher rates of depression. This study aims to explore the effect of aerobic exercise program management on overweight/obese adolescents with depression.

methodsThis retrospective study analyzed clinical data of overweight/obese adolescents with depression at Wuhan Mental Health Center, from June 2019 to June 2022. Propensity score matching (PSM), t-tests, and chi-square tests were applied. Observation indexes including Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale 17 (HAMD-17), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ), body mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR), nursing effectiveness, and Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74.

resultsA total of 229 depressed overweight/obese adolescents were divided into two groups: the control group (n = 108) receiving routine care only, and the observation group (n = 121) receiving routine care along with aerobic exercise. After 1:1 PSM (caliper 0.02), groups (each group comprised 104 patients) showed no baseline differences. No significant differences were found in HAMA, HAMD-17, SCSQ, quality of life scores, BMI, and WHR pre-exercise (p > 0.05). Post-nursing care, the observation group exhibited significantly lower HAMA (t = 3.589, p = 0.001), HAMD-17 (t = 3.554, p = 0.001), SCSQ negative scores (t = 3.584, p = 0.001), BMI (t = 3.051, p = 0.003), and waist-to-hip ratio (t = 3.379, p = 0.001), with higher SCSQ positive (t = 3.443, p = 0.001) and quality of life in material life (t = 3.385, p = 0.001), physical function (t = 3.834, p < 0.001), social function (t = 3.485, p = 0.001), psychological function (t = 3.178, p = 0.002) compared to the control group.

conclusionThe aerobic exercise program care for overweight/obese adolescents with depression, which is advocated and has a high nursing effect, can effectively improve the anxiety and depression of patients.
