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

backgroundMethamphetamine is one of the most abused drugs worldwide. Methamphetamine use disorders (MAUD) not only affect the physical and mental health of addicts but also increase the risk of suicide. Although the suicide rate of MAUD patients is high, there is little research on the clinical characteristics and risk factors of suicide risk in MAUD patients. So, it is necessary to investigate the related risk factors of suicidal ideation of MAUD.

methodsUsing response-driven sampling (RDS), a total of 10,225 MAUDs were randomly selected from April to May 2023 in Guangdong, China. MAUD was evaluated by the Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation (BSSI) and divided into a case (n = 1228) and a control group (n = 8997). Multivariate generalized linear mixed model analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of suicidal ideation among MAUDs.

resultsThe result of multivariate generalized linear mixed model analysis showed that the dosage of each use of MA (OR = 5.52, 95%CI = 4.93～6.17), age (OR = 1.11, 95%CI = 1.03～1.20), childhood physical abuse(OR = 3.43, 95%CI = 3.17～3.71), childhood emotional neglect(OR = 2.77, 95%CI = 2.60～2.94), introverted and extroverted personality(OR = 2.85, 95%CI = 2.64～3.08), and neurotic personality(OR = 1.15, 95%CI = 1.02～1.30) were the risk factors of suicidal ideation among MAUDs in Guangdong, China.

conclusionSuicidal ideation among MAUDs is influenced by family, society, stress, and other factors, so it is necessary to take comprehensive intervention measures.
