Suicide prevention following conviction within the criminal justice system: a review of good practice using a social-ecological framework.
Review in BMC global and public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Suicide is a leading cause of death among individuals in contact with the criminal justice system, with rates far greater than those in the general population. Despite developments in research and practice around suicide prevention, few jurisdictions globally have implemented comprehensive systems or policies across the full criminal justice pathway. In this overview, we present a review of the current evidence base in relation to correctional policy and practice, along with selected examples of good practice in suicide prevention for people serving custodial or community-based sentences, predominantly from England and Wales and Australia. We utilise a social-ecological framework to describe the multi-level factors contributing to suicide risk and various approaches to prevention. While progress has been made, there are still significant gaps in both our understanding and implementation which, if addressed, would meaningfully enhance suicide prevention for this marginalised population.
