Predicting Suicidal Ideation Among Native American High Schoolers in California.
Article in Archives of suicide research : official journal of the International Academy for Suicide Research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
introductionSuicide is the leading cause of non-accidental death for Native American young people ages 15-24. Alarmingly, suicide rates have continued to rise over the past decade despite ongoing prevention efforts. This shortcoming has urged some scholars to (re)examine dominant theoretical models to better direct suicide prevention efforts in tribal communities.
methodUsing Indigenous Wholistic Theory, this study used an algorithmic approach to identify a broader set of factors associated with suicidal ideation among Native American high school students in California (n = 2,609). Data were drawn from the 2019-2020 California Healthy Kids Survey, a statewide school-based dataset. Lasso penalized regression was employed to select the most predictive variables for suicidal ideation from a set of 17 candidate factors.
resultsTen predictors were retained in the final model: depressive symptoms; school-based victimization; sexual and gender minority status; lifetime use of alcohol, vapes, and cannabis; breakfast consumption; access to alcohol and other drugs; and parent education level.
conclusionA combination of factors spanning individual, emotional-social, mental-political, and physical-economic domains predicted individualized risk for experiencing suicidal ideation. These findings underscore the need to move beyond psycho-centric models and toward more comprehensive understandings of suicide-related behavior among Native American youth.
