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

Objective: The objective of this scoping review was to explore, appraise and synthesize the current literature regarding the incidence, factors influencing, and prevention strategies related to suicide risk among nurses. Methods: An extensive literature search was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, Medline, and Embase from its formation to June 20, 2024, specifically focusing on the suicide-related behaviors of nurses written in Chinese or English. Two researchers independently screened the literature, and disagreements were debated until a consensus was reached. Data extraction was conducted for the studies that were included. The process of data synthesis was carried out using narrative analysis. Results: The study encompassed 40 papers from 15 different countries. This study found that nurses' suicide ideation ranged from 4.3 to 44.58%, while suicide attempts ranged from 2.9 to 12.6%. Based on the stress-vulnerability model, factors influencing nurses' suicide-related behaviors include vulnerability (personality traits, coping styles), stressors (mental disorders, workplace bullying, etc.) and protective factors (social support, resilience, etc.). The strategies for preventing nurse suicide encompass primary prevention (for all nurses), secondary prevention (for nurses at risk of suicide), and tertiary prevention (for nurses who have attempted suicide). Conclusion: The suicide rate among nurses exceeds that of the general population. Mental disorders and workplace bullying are significant stressors that contribute to nurse suicide. Suicide-related behaviors among nurses can be effectively prevented and managed through the implementation of the tertiary prevention strategies. Primary prevention is essential in reducing suicide. Cognitive exercises and schedule shifts reasonably are primary preventive measures tailored for nurses. This study addresses the gaps in influencing factors about suicide-related behaviors among nurses and the strategies for preventing suicide, and provides a complete review of the current situation of nurses' suicide-related behaviors, providing references for the safe management of nurses' suicide.
