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

Adults bereaved by the suicide or overdose death of someone close to them are vulnerable to adverse mental health outcomes, but little is known about how these individuals utilize avoidance- and approach-based coping strategies, how these strategies relate to outcomes, and what accounts for these associations. Informed by contemporary theories of bereavement, we utilize prospective data from suicide- and overdose-bereaved adults (
