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

Introduction: Community center recipients often face depression and anxiety, compounded by socioeconomic factors like poverty and unemployment. Materials and methods: The study surveyed 120 community center recipients in a remote area of Greece. Participants were administered a questionnaire, including socio-demographic data, the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21), the UCLA Loneliness Scale (UCLA-LS-20), the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISK-25) and the Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0. Results: The total scale of depression, anxiety, and stress was negatively correlated with age ( Discussion: Mental resilience and meaning in life were protective factors, against depression, anxiety, and stress. Loneliness was a risk factor for psychological distress, while chronic physical illnesses and living alone were risk factors for depression and loneliness. Although older age was a protective factor against psychological distress, being married was associated with anxiety. The study emphasizes that mental health is deeply intertwined with social connectivity and physical health. Interventions should prioritize reducing loneliness and fostering resilience to mitigate the impact of socioeconomic stressors. Future strategies should aim to enhance tailored psychosocial approaches by leveraging family support systems and helping individuals find meaning in their lives.
