Anxiety and depression status in geriatric patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty: Correlation with postoperative pain and risk factors.
Article in World journal of psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundAnxiety, depression, and postoperative pain are common in patients with hip joint disorders and are associated with compromised functional outcomes and delayed recovery.
aimTo investigate the prevalence of anxiety and depression among geriatric patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA), explored their association with postoperative pain, and identified contributing risk factors.
methodsA total of 111 geriatric patients who underwent THA between January 2021 and January 2024 were included. Standardized psychological assessment tools-including the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS)-and the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain quantification were systematically administered. Pearson correlation analysis was utilized to explore the relationships among SAS, SDS, and NRS scores. Univariate and multivariate binary logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify risk factors for anxiety and depression in these patients.
resultsThe cohort exhibited moderate anxiety (SAS: 44.23 ± 9.03), mild depression (SDS: 46.98 ± 9.15), and moderate postoperative pain (NRS: 4.93 ± 2.37). Patients with anxiety or depression reported significantly higher NRS scores than those without these conditions. Significant positive correlations were observed between SAS and SDS scores, as well as between each of these and NRS scores. Univariate analysis revealed that gender, age, disease duration, alcohol use, diabetes history, and NRS scores were significantly associated with anxiety and depression. Multivariate analysis further identified female gender, disease duration ≥ 2 years, alcohol use, and NRS scores ≥ 5 as independent predictors of postoperative psychological distress.
conclusionAnxiety and depression are closely linked with postoperative pain in geriatric patients post-THA recovery. Early psychological screening and multimodal pain management strategies are recommended-particularly for individuals with a disease duration of ≥ 2 years, a history of alcohol consumption, or an NRS score of ≥ 5, as well as female patients-to effectively mitigate their negative emotional states and improve postoperative recovery.
