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

problemSuicide rates among adolescents continue to rise globally. Frequent changes in residency can be traumatic for adolescents, increasing their risk of suicidal behaviors. However, the impact of residential mobility on mental health remains understudied. While numerous studies have linked childhood residential mobility to suicidal tendencies, limited research explores the relationship between residence changes and suicide attempts among adolescents. This study examines the relationship between residential mobility and suicide attempts among adolescents.

methodsThis cross-sectional retrospective study uses data from California emergency department visits for deliberate self-harm. Adolescents aged 10-19 were included, with exposure defined as suicide attempts in 2010 and the outcome as no history of zip code changes or at least one change (2006-2009). Logistic regression models adjusted for demographic characteristics (gender, age, race, and insurance status) were used to assess the association between residential mobility and suicide attempts. Stratified analyses explored variations across demographic subgroups.

findingsAmong 496,268 participants, adolescents who attempted suicide were more likely to have one or more residence changes (AOR  = 1.71, 95% CI  = 1.58-1.85). This association showed higher odds among females (AOR  = 1.51), older adolescents (15-19 years, AOR  = 1.42), nonwhite racial groups (e.g., Black = 1.55; Hispanic = 1.71; Other = 1.70), and those with Medicaid (AOR  = 1.87), Self-pay (AOR  = 1.47), or Other insurance (AOR  = 2.20) compared to their respective reference groups.

conclusionsAdolescents with at least one history of relocation are at risk of suicide attempts. Targeted interventions should focus on individuals who have made frequent moves during their adolescent years. Clinicians should consider relocation histories in suicide risk evaluations.
