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

backgroundIndividuals in the early stages of psychosis have a markedly high risk for suicidal thoughts and behavior (STB). It is not well understood if STB among those with psychosis-risk symptoms is accounted for by co-occurring psychopathology (e.g., depression), unique experiences specific to psychosis-spectrum symptomatology (e.g., hallucinations, delusions), or combined effects of different factors. This cross-sectional study explored the link between psychosis-spectrum symptoms, co-occurring disorders, and STB.

methodsThis record review included 569 adolescents (mean age = 14.83) admitted to a psychiatric inpatient hospital due to exhibiting behavior indicating they were an imminent threat to themselves or others. Upon intake to the hospital, participants completed a diagnostic interview and self-report measures of suicidal ideation, suicide attempt history, and psychosis-spectrum symptoms. The primary analysis used linear regression to predict suicidal ideation from psychosis-spectrum symptom scores, controlling for known characteristics associated with STB including specific psychiatric disorders (i.e. depressive, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and psychotic disorders), biological sex, and race.

resultsPsychosis-spectrum symptoms predicted suicidal ideation above and beyond the significant effects of a depressive disorder diagnosis and sex, as well as the non-significant effects of anxiety, PTSD, full-threshold psychosis, and race. Item-level correlations demonstrated that several psychosis-spectrum symptoms were significantly associated with ideation and lifetime suicide attempts.

conclusionsResults indicate that within this sample of psychiatrically hospitalized youth, psychosis-risk symptoms were uniquely linked to STB. These findings suggest that attention to psychosis-spectrum symptoms, including several specific psychosis-risk experiences, may be clinically important for better assessment and treatment of suicidal youth.
