Occupational groups and risk of suicidal behavior in men: a Swedish national cohort study during 2002-2019.
Article in BMC public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe risk of suicide has been shown to vary by occupation. We aim to identify contemporary occupational groups at greatest risk for suicidal behaviour (fatal and non-fatal), in Swedish men of working-age.
methodsA population-based cohort study of male conscripts without history of self-harm who enlisted during 1968-2001 and were followed-up during 2002-2019 (n = 1 542 665). Occupational groups and suicidal behaviours were identified using national registers. Incidence rate ratios (IRR) for suicidal behaviour at ages 25-65 were calculated among occupational groups, and compared to the incidence rate of the whole cohort.
resultsMajor occupational groups with increased risk for suicidal behavior included elementary occupations, building and manufacturing, service, care and shop sale and mechanical manufacturing and transport. Subgroup analyses revealed particularly high risks for assistant nurses, other service workers not elsewhere classified, building frame and related trades workers and cleaners and helpers.
conclusionsMen with elementary occupations as well as personal care and building and manufacturing workers were at greatest risk. This study provides a comprehensive description of risks for suicidal behaviour among occupational groups in men of working-age. These results suggest occupational groups that should be targeted for general suicide prevention intervention.
