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

While suicidal ideation represents an "early warning" sign for suicidal behavior, studies examining suicidal ideation have been limited and largely atheorethical among those with schizophrenia. Informed by the Escape Theory of Suicide, we investigated the relationship between discrepancy factors, in the form of self-esteem and quality of life (QoL), and suicidal ideation. In a sample of 162 individuals with Schizophrenia, hierarchical logistic regression was employed to examine the contribution of (1) demographic (2) clinical and (3) discrepancy factors to suicidal ideation. A mediation analysis was performed to determine if self-esteem mediated the relationship between QoL and suicidal ideation. While QoL (in social relationships) and self-esteem collectively added value to predicting suicidal ideation beyond other factors, only self-esteem remained significant in the final hierarchical model. Self-esteem was found to mediate the relationship between QoL and suicidal ideation. Findings support Escape Theory in schizophrenia, marking self-esteem and QoL as targets for intervention.
