Risk of self-injurious behavior increases in adolescence: new findings.

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
Introduction: Self-injurious behaviors are a type of self-inflicted violence, with or without suicidal intentions. Approximately 10% of the global population has exhibited non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI); in Mexico, these behaviors are most common among individuals aged 10-29, with an average onset age of 12.3 years in Nuevo León. Objective: To determine the predictive power of childhood traumatic events, emotional dysregulation, peer social pressure, and digital social networks on the incidence of self-injurious behaviors in adolescents aged 11-16 who are part of the educational system in the metropolitan area of Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Methods: A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional, explanatory study was conducted. Six measurement questionnaires were used including a Screening of Self-injurious Behaviors and Suicide Related with Internet Use for adolescents designed by the authors for this study. For statistical analyses, we were considered ratio or continuous variables. The correlation was carried out using Spearman's rank coefficient and a significance level of 95% was applied to determine the predictive value of each variable on self-injurious behaviors and/or suicidal ideation. Results: A high prevalence of the self-injurious behaviors and suicide ideation among adolescents, highlighting not only traditional risk factors like emotional dysregulation, peer pressure, and childhood trauma but also the significant impact and predictive value of digital exposure to content about self-harm and suicide in social digital networks. Conclusion: Not all adolescents fully recognize the severity of their own behaviors or their peers' behaviors, which can lead to delays in seeking help. There is a need for prevention efforts, such as psychoeducation and open communication, alongside regulation of harmful content on social media. To address the problem holistically, collaboration between parents, educators, and health professionals is recommended.
