Suicidal ideation and attempts in trichotillomania.
Article in Psychiatry research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Trichotillomania is characterized by chronic pulling out of one's hair. Given the negative sequelae of trichotillomania, we examined rates of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. Of the 219 adults (mean age = 29.5 years; 88% female) recruited, 40 (18.3%) reported lifetime suicidal ideation, and 5 (2.3%) reported a lifetime suicide attempt. Those with histories of suicidal ideation were significantly more likely to have major depressive disorder. Our findings suggest that suicidal ideation and attempts are common in trichotillomania and support the idea that comorbid depression should be considered a risk factor for suicidality.
