Distinguishing Prevention from Treatment in Suicide Prevention. Comment on Turner et al. The Paradox of Suicide Prevention.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 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
In "The Paradox of Suicide Prevention", Turner and colleagues made an important contribution: they applied Rose's prevention paradox to suicide prevention efforts in healthcare systems. However, in doing so, they conflated prevention and treatment and did not distinguish suicide from suicidality. Their views may confuse efforts to design and implement clinical pathways for preventing suicide.
