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

American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) Veterans are at elevated risk for suicide, but currently, no population-based research exists on precursors, including ideation, plans, or attempts. We employed two large national surveys to investigate the occurrence of suicide-related behaviors among AI/AN Veterans. Using cross-sectional data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS, 2010-2012) and National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH, 2010-2015), we compared weighted frequencies of suicide ideation in AI/AN Veterans and non-Hispanic White (NHW) Veterans. Suicide ideation among AI/AN Veterans was 9.1% (95%CI = 3.6%, 21.5%) and 8.9% (95%CI = 1.9%, 15.9%) in BRFSS and NSDUH, respectively, compared to 3.5% (95%CI = 3.0%, 4.1%) and 3.7% (95%CI = 3.0%, 4.4%) for NHW Veterans. Logit analysis suggested higher odds of ideation among AI/AN Veterans in both samples (NDSUH: OR = 2.68, 95%CI = 1.14-6.31; BRFSS: OR = 2.66, 95% CI 0.96-7.38), although sample sizes were small and confidence intervals were wide. Consistent findings from two national samples suggest AI/AN Veterans have more than twice the risk of suicide ideation relative to NHW Veterans. Ongoing efforts include weighing these results together with data on suicide deaths from medical and death records to develop effective suicide prevention approaches in collaboration with AI/AN Veterans and their communities.
