The Role of the Neighborhood Social Environment on Adulthood Depression: Insights from Midlife in the United States III.
Article in Community mental health journal, 2026. 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
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a serious public health concern in the United States. Prior research has shown that neighborhood characteristics serve as protective factors against depression in adolescents. Few studies have examined the association between perceived neighborhood characteristics and depression during middle and older adulthood. We examined the association between each perceived neighborhood social environment (i.e., social cohesion and safety) and the presence of MDD among Midlife in the United States III (MIDUS) participants (n = 2,435, mean age = 63.6 years, Female = 54.4%). Moreover, we investigated whether these associations were moderated by sex and income, separately. All models were adjusted for demographic variables. Overall, perceived neighborhood social cohesion and safety were negatively associated with the presence of MDD. The associations varied when analyses were stratified by sex and income. Findings offer support for the perceived neighborhood social environments as protective factors against depression during middle and older adulthood.
