Screening for Depression, Anxiety, and Suicidality: Insights From Electronic Health Record Data in an Academic Medical Center.
Article in Journal of primary care & community health. 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
introductionIn 2023, 14.6 million adult Americans had serious mental illness, including Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and anxiety disorders. Further, 12.3 million adult Americans had serious suicidal thoughts and behaviors. This report examined mental health screening in non-psychiatry clinics to identify gaps in screening practices using electronic health record (EHR) data.
methodsDe-identified data were accessed from the Epic EHR from 2016 to 2022. All participants with a recorded encounter with a mental health screening within 5 years of the first encounter date were included. The screening tools included Patient Health Questionnaire - 9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder - 7 (GAD-7), and Concise Health Risk Tracking Self-Report (CHRT-SR
resultsThe frequency of self-report use (% of total encounters) increased from 2016 to 2022. During this period, the internal medicine department consistently screened for anxiety using the GAD-7 scale in over 35% of total encounters and for suicidality using the CHRT-SR
conclusionsThis report highlights the increase in the use of key mental health questionnaires by non-psychiatric practitioners over time after implementation. EHR data enables the identification of gaps in screening for depression, anxiety, and suicidality across departments in a medical center.
