Caregiver Attitudes and Youth Suicidality: Implications for Involving Caregivers in Outpatient Crisis Care for Adolescents.

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
Objective: Suicide is a leading cause of death among young people 10 to 24 years old in the United States. Interventions that include both adolescents and their caregivers demonstrate promise in reducing adolescent suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STB), suggesting that caregiver attitudes may impact treatment outcomes. Better understanding of how caregiver attitudes impact youth STB outcomes may highlight important treatment targets. Method: This study examined data from youth (N = 187) and their caregivers who participated in a 4-session outpatient crisis stabilization intervention (mean [SD] youth age = 14.6 [1.9] years; majority cisgender female [62%], mean [SD] number of sessions attended = 3.7 [1.2]). Paired-samples t tests examined changes in caregiver attitudes over the course of the intervention, and moderation analyses examined how baseline caregiver attitudes regarding youth STB impacted the relationship between intervention attendance and self-reported suicide risk at intervention completion. Results: Caregivers' confidence that they could keep their child safe and their child would not attempt suicide again and hopefulness/optimism for the future significantly moderated the relationship between number of sessions attended and suicide risk ( Conclusion: Differences in caregiver confidence and hopefulness for the future at intervention initiation impacted youth suicide risk outcomes at intervention completion. These results highlight the need to assess and address caregiver confidence and hopefulness through involving caregivers directly in adolescent crisis interventions to improve youth STB outcomes.
