Race-related stress, dissociation symptoms, and suicidal thoughts and behaviors in a community sample of Black Americans.
Article in Psychological trauma : theory, research, practice and policy, 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
objectiveSuicide rates for Black Americans continue to increase, pointing to the need for additional research on potential risk factors for suicidal ideation and attempts in this population. While race-related stress and dissociation symptoms are consistently associated with suicidal ideation and attempts, the indirect effect of race-related stress on current suicidal ideation and lifetime attempts through dissociation symptoms has not yet been examined in a community sample of trauma-exposed Black Americans.
methodParticipants (
resultsTwo simple mediation analyses were conducted in MPlus to investigate the indirect effect of race-related stress on past-month suicidal ideation severity and lifetime suicide attempt history through dissociation symptoms. Cumulative trauma load and age were entered into the model as covariates. Past-month race-related stress was indirectly related to past-month suicidal ideation severity (β = 0.05, standard error = 0.02, 95% confidence interval [0.02, 0.09],
conclusionFindings suggest race-related stress and dissociation symptoms are critical to consider when determining risk for suicidal thoughts and behaviors among Black Americans in underserved communities. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
