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

backgroundDespite high rates of youth suicide attempt, little is known about patterns of functional impairment in terms of sickness absence and disability pension (SA/DP) before and after an attempt. The aim was to identify SA/DP trajectories among young adults with or without suicide attempt and to describe associations of socio-demographic and clinical factors with such trajectories.

methodsThis is a population-based cohort study of 5385 individuals aged 25-40 years with a first suicide attempt during 2007-2009. One control for each case without suicide attempt was matched by socio-demographic factors. Trajectories of annual SA/DP months over an eight-year period were analysed by group-based trajectory modelling. Associations between socio-demographic and clinical factors with trajectory groups were estimated by chi

resultsTwo groups of suicide attempters had low SA/DP levels over time (62%). One group had constantly high SA/DP levels (16%). The remaining two groups had increased SA/DP initially, which then decreased at different time points. Socio-demographic and clinical factors were associated with different trajectories (R

conclusionsYoung suicide attempters even with no/low levels of SA/DP were likely to be marginalised at the labour market. Schizophrenia/non-affective psychoses and personality disorders were important clinical factors for differentiating the levels of SA/DP among young suicide attempters.
