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

Suicide and associated behaviors represent a significant health disparity among refugees and displaced persons. Despite this burden, evidence for prevention programing in these populations is limited. This study aimed to inform the selection and implementation of suicide prevention strategies in refugee camps in Northwestern, Thailand - camps that had experienced recent spikes in suicides and suicide attempts at the time of the study. We leveraged Community Based System Dynamics modeling through a series of four workshops with key local stakeholders and suicide prevention experts, to build a qualitative systems model that accounts for complexities and is aimed at assisting local partners with selecting the most promising strategies for implementation and evaluation. The process expanded local understanding of the causes and consequences of suicide and resulted in selection of priority interventions aimed at reducing suicide in this context. Our research illustrates the application of a novel methodology that aims to account for the complexities of suicide prevention in the context of displacement and helps to optimize local suicide prevention efforts.
