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

objectiveIdentifying digital markers of sleep disturbance-a known suicide risk factor-may aid in the detection of imminent suicide risk. This study examined sleep-related communication and texting patterns in personal text messages (N = 86,705) of suicide attempt survivors.

methodTwenty-six participants provided dates of past suicide attempts and 2-week periods of positive mood, depressed mood, or suicidal ideation. Linguistic Inquiry Word Count was used to identify sleep-related texts via a custom dictionary. Mixed effect models were fitted to test the association between suicide/mood episode type (e.g., attempt versus ideation) and three outcomes: likelihood of a text including sleep-related content, nightly count of texts sent from midnight to 5:00 AM, and sum of unique hour bins from midnight to 5:00 AM with outgoing texts.

resultsAnalyses with a sleep dictionary that was manually revised to be more accurate (but not the original unedited dictionary) showed sleep-related communication was more likely during depressed mood episodes than positive mood episodes. Otherwise, there were no significant differences in sleep-related communication or objective texting patterns across episode type.

conclusionsAlthough we did not detect differences in sleep-related communication tied to suicidal thoughts or behaviors, sleep-related communication may differ as a function of within-person mood level.
