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

aimsConsidering that suicide has remained a public health challenge in South Korea since 2009, the development of a real-time monitoring system for suicide risk is urgently needed, especially for those living in the community. The aims of this study were to explore the 28-day longitudinal pattern of suicidal ideation, compare momentary depression, anxiety and stress between different risk groups, and identify the association of suicidal ideation with momentary indicators in community-dwelling outpatients at risk of suicide.

designObservational and longitudinal investigation.

methodsA total of 50 community-dwelling psychiatric outpatients were included herein. Those with a history of suicide attempts were classified into the high-risk group (n = 40, 80%), whereas the rest were classified into the low-risk group (n = 10, 20%). Real-time data on depression, anxiety, stress and suicidal ideation were collected from May 2021 to July 2023 based on ecological momentary assessment. Each participant provided reports at least three times a day for 4 weeks. A total of 3195 ecological momentary assessment responses were collected, among which 1345 with the highest mood intensity per day were selected for analysis. Panel mixed-effect linear regression models examined differences in ecological momentary assessment responses between high- and low-risk groups and elucidated the separate effects of depression, anxiety and stress on suicidal ideation in each risk group.

resultsMomentary depression, anxiety and stress were positively associated with momentary suicidal ideation in both risk groups, with these associations being higher among the high-risk group. In both risk groups, momentary suicidal ideation was more strongly associated with momentary depression than with momentary anxiety and stress.

conclusionsPsychosocial stress indicators were associated with momentary suicidal ideation. Moreover, a strong association was observed between momentary depression and suicide attempts. Further research with larger samples should be conducted to evaluate whether depression interventions could reduce momentary suicidal ideation. No Patient or Public Contribution.
