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

introductionNurses and healthcare support staff have a higher suicide risk than the public. This elevated risk calls for increased efforts to support mental health. Additionally, nursing leaders' education on employee-specific suicide prevention is lacking.

designAn evidence-based project was implemented using the PICO question: Among nurse leaders at an academic healthcare system in California, does the provision of an educational program using role-playing practice and the creation of a suicide prevention toolkit versus no standard education or training improve self-efficacy and knowledge on how to take action with a team member who is suspected of being suicidal or voicing suicidal ideation?

methodsEducation sessions were planned based on the literature, with surveys collected preintervention, immediately posteducation, and 1-month postintervention to assess suicide prevention self-efficacy and knowledge. Knowledge was measured using a researcher-constructed questionnaire validated by six suicide prevention experts. The General Self-Efficacy Scale (range: 10-40) was used.

resultsSixty participants attended one of 11 scheduled remote-learning sessions. Mean self-efficacy significantly improved (pre: 31.3 [n = 46, min: 18, max: 40]; immediate post: 33.49 [n = 37, min: 24, max: 40]; 1-month post: 33.77 [n = 31, min: 28, max: 40]) (X

conclusionProject results demonstrate the need to provide suicide prevention training for leaders. The authors recommend requiring training/return demonstration competency as a component of new leaders' onboarding. This program can easily be modified for nurses from prelicensure through senior leadership. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Suicide rates in healthcare members are higher than those of the general population. Suicide prevention programs can help nursing leaders feel better prepared to support and connect at-risk healthcare workers with resources.
