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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesThis study aimed to identify factors associated with harmful behavior toward others based on existing research.

methodsThis scoping review focused on individuals at risk of harming others due to mental health issues, with the target population encompassing three settings: the community, inpatient facilities with frequent admissions and discharges, and healthcare settings where medical treatment is sought. A scoping review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. The terms violence, aggression, problem behavior, and workplace violence were used to search for related literature, subsequently selecting systematic reviews.

resultsA total of 24 papers were ultimately included. From the included papers, background factors (demographic, personal history, and clinical aspects); situational factors (social connection status, daily life status); psychological factors; antecedents of harmful behavior; and triggers of harmful behavior were extracted as factors associated with harmful behavior.

conclusionsOur results indicate that background and situational factors lead to harmful behavior toward others, disruptions in the harmony between these factors cause disturbances in psychological processes, and harmful behavior toward others is triggered by stimuli that promote such behavior. Considering that all studies reviewed herein involved inpatients in medical settings, further research is required to identify the factors associated with harmful behaviors occurring in the community.
