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

Research on the implementation of community gatekeeper training interventions for suicide prevention in Spanish-speaking countries is limited. Gatekeepers identify warning signs of suicidal behavior in at-risk population and refer them to specialized mental health care. To identify factors that influence the implementation of evidence-based practices, standardized measures are needed in Spanish. We culturally adapted and evaluated the factor structure and reliability of two measures for use in the Mexican population: the final version of Acceptability, Appropriateness, and Feasibility of the Intervention (Weiner et al., 2017), and the Organizational Readiness for Implementing Change (ORIC; Shea et al., 2014). Our study consisted of two consecutive phases. The first addressed the cross-cultural adaptation. In the second phase, we administered an online survey to a nonrandom sample of 453 middle school personnel and performed a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Participants were 73.95% female, 25.17% male, and 0.88% nonbinary/other and came from the 32 Mexican states. CFA indices for the Mexican Spanish version of the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility measure yielded values of comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.96, Tucker-Lewis fit index (TLI) = 0.94, root-mean-square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.05, and standardized root-mean-square residual (SRMR) = 0.03. Internal consistency was Ω = 0.95. CFA indices of the Mexican Spanish version of the ORIC were CFI = 0.95, TLI = 0.93, RMSEA = 0.08, and SRMR = 0.03, and internal consistency was Ω = 0.94. We conclude that both instruments show preliminary psychometric properties that support their validity and reliability in the Mexican Spanish-speaking context. These findings promise to drive research on the implementation of gatekeeper interventions and other evidence-based practices in Spanish-speaking school settings.
