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
objectiveJail detention may be a marker of suicide risk in the community. This article aimed to describe the phenomenology of suicide risk, including lifetime suicidal behaviors and comorbid conditions, observed among individuals recruited into a suicide prevention trial who passed through pretrial jail detention before returning to the community.
methodsData on baseline characteristics of 800 adult participants from the SPIRIT (Suicide Prevention Intervention for At-Risk Individuals in Transition) study were analyzed.
resultsHalf the participants reported a suicide attempt in the 30 days prior to study enrollment, 85% reported at least one lifetime suicide attempt, and (93%, N=743) reported any suicidal behavior in their lifetime. Most (85%) suicide attempts in the past 30 days were made in the community, prior to arrest. Participants had a mean±SD of 14.1±53.6 lifetime suicide attempts. One-third (34%) reported that their first attempt occurred when they were ≤10 years old. Comorbid conditions were common, with high rates of problematic substance use as well as symptoms of depression, posttraumatic stress, psychosis, and mania.
conclusionsIndividuals passing through pretrial jail detention have a complex suicide risk profile that often includes addiction, serious mental illness, and long histories of suicidal behaviors. Because most of these individuals return to the community within days, effective postdetention suicide prevention services in the community are needed.
