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

purposeSexual and gender minority adolescents (SGMA) are at heighted risk for suicide ideation (SI) and nonsuicidal self-injury ideation (NSSII) compared to their heterosexual and cisgender counterparts. Oppression-based stressors are posited to explain these disparities. However, there is limited research examining protective factors that mitigate the impact of oppression-based stressors. We conducted a 28-day daily diary study to test the moderating effects of daily general and SGM-affirmative social support on the associations between oppression-based stressors and SI and NSSII among SGMA.

methodsParticipants were 92 SGMA, ages 12-19 years (M = 16.28; standard deviation = 1.77; 52% cisgender; 61% White, non-Hispanic/Latine). Participants completed one daily survey per day over a 28-day monitoring period and demonstrated high compliance.

resultsOn days SGMA experienced greater oppression-based stressors than their average, they had a greater likelihood of reporting same-day SI and NSSII. On days SGMA had greater SGM-affirmative social supports than their average, they had a lower likelihood of endorsing samde-day SI but not NSSII. General social supports were not associated with a lower likelihood of endorsing SI or NSSII. The interactions between all social supports and oppression-based stressors were not significant for SI or NSSII. DISCUSSION: The novel results underscore the harm oppression-based stressors inflict on SGMA's mental health, and highlight the unique importance of SGM-affirmative support in reducing risk for daily SI. Suicide interventions for this population may need to target SGM-affirmative social supports and exposure to or impact of oppression-based stressors.
