Seasonality of Chinese rural young suicide and its correlates.
Article in Journal of affective disorders, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThere had been few studies on seasonality of Chinese suicide especially for Chinese rural youths. In this research, we wanted to find the seasonal pattern and the relationship between personal and behavioral characteristics and seasonal variation of suicide.
methodWe examined Chinese rural young adults aged 15 to 34 years who died by suicide using Psychological Autopsy method to gather information from the informants of suicide victims. Altogether 330 suicide victims were collected among which 144 were female and 186 were male. The χ(2) test was used for comparison, and the multiple logistic regressions and Odds Ratios were adopted to analyze the seasonal preferences of suicide victims.
resultSeasonal summer peak of suicide emerged in total population and in each subgroup. Four logistic regression models were constructed: in spring, six variables were included in the regression model, which were Gender (OR = 1.627), Pesticide Used (OR = 1.622), Life Events (OR = 2.764), Suicide Intent (OR = 1.641), Marital Status (OR = 0.574) and Family Conflicts (OR = 0.590); in summer, only Marital Status (OR = 1.927) was accepted; in autumn, four variables including Marital Problems (OR = 1.924), Trait Anxiety (OR = 1.758), Gender (OR = 0.518) and Religion (OR = 0.534) were retained; in winter, Pesticide Used (OR = 0.486) and Suicide Intent (OR = 0.614) were retained.
conclusionSeasonal variations of personal and behavioral characteristics, combined with social activities, might also play very important roles in suicide seasonality.
