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

objectiveSubstance use is strongly associated with suicide attempts (SA) throughout life. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of SA and associated factors in life in patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD).

methodsThe sample consisted of 424 men with AUD who underwent treatment at the Addiction Psychiatry Unit of the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre. The clinical evaluation included the Addiction Severity Index (ASI), the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS), and the Structured Clinical Interview for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (SCID). Variables that showed p < 0.05 in the bivariate analyses were included in a hierarchical regression model with robust variance to investigate associations with SA in life via estimation of adjusted prevalence ratios (PR).

resultsThe lifetime prevalence of SA among alcohol users was 36.6%. Patients with childhood maltreatment, borderline personality disorder (BPD), and higher impulsivity scores had a higher lifetime prevalence of SA.

conclusionOur findings indicate that male inpatient alcoholics present an important prevalence of SA. The study also corroborates the relationship between maltreatment, impulsivity, and BPD with SA among inpatients in treatment for AUD.
