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
Objective: Stress and life changes such as ageing, spouse's death, divorce, marriage, job loss, retirement, illness, interpersonal relationships and a history of suicide ideation or attempt may be considered risk factors for suicide attempts. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between stress and suicide. Design: Case-controlled and retrospective study. Participants: Patients referred to the Emergency Poisoning Unit of Yazd, were used as a case group and other admitted patients with various plans and etiologies were a control group, matched on age, gender, marital status and place of residence. Settings: Patients were asked to fill out a questionnaire including age, gender, economic status, marital status, place of residence, a background of suicide, and history of family members' suicide as well as the Holmes-Rahe scale. SPSS 16, chi-square and t-test were used for analyzing data. Results: Comparing the Holmes-Rahe stress scale's scores of the case group (312.9±84.60) and control group (224.62±85.57) showed a significant statistical difference (P<0.0001). Regarding stress intensity, the score in the case group showed 6% mild stress, 40% moderate stress, 54% severe stress, and in the control group, 13%, 61% and 26%, respectively. Holmes-Rahe stress scale score of stress intensity showed a significant statistical difference between groups (P<0.0001). Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that stress was associated with increased suicide attempts. Funding: None declared.
