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

Background: Suicide-related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is characterized by extremely low survival rates and represents a considerable global public health concern. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, characteristics, and outcomes of suicide-related OHCA. Methods: This multicenter, retrospective cohort study is an analysis of data collected from the JAPAN Registry of Self-harm and Suicide Attempts. Patients were divided into two groups, the OHCA group and the non-OHCA group. The primary outcome was death at 30 days. Results: Among 1,960 self-harm and suicide attempts patients, 213 patients (10.9 %) were assigned to the OHCA group and 1,747 (89.1%) were in the non-OHCA group.Patients in the OHCA group were older (44 vs. 33 years old, Conclusion: Suicide-related OHCA was rare and associated with poorer prognosis compared to patients without OHCA. It was more common in middle-aged men without a history of psychiatric care or prior suicide attempts, although the study was limited by missing data.
