"What I do not see and others see in me": mutual aid for suicide recovery in Colombia.
Article in International journal of qualitative studies on health and well-being, 2025. 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
purposeIn response to the rise in suicidal behaviour and the strategies to address it, community actions represent a comprehensive approach to the factors influencing this situation. The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of mutual support on the recovery of individuals who experienced suicidal behaviour and attended community mental health groups.
methodsA qualitative study was conducted in 2023. Focus groups were used as a data collection technique, followed by thematic analysis. Participants were selected based on convenience from mutual support groups registered with the Ministry of Health of Colombia.
resultsTwo main themes were identified in the thematic analysis. The first theme, "Own Reasons Through Others," was composed of categories such as "What Others See in Me" and "The Importance of Being in the Same Boat." The second theme was titled "The Community as a Space for Suicide Prevention," with categories including "Human Rights for Recovery" and "What We Can Achieve Together."
conclusionsPluralism, understood as the integration of diverse perspectives, is crucial for addressing complex phenomena such as mental health and community interventions. The study demonstrates how mutual aid groups and their members can generate collective and policy actions effective for managing suicidal behaviour.
