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

purposeWe aimed to identify actionable, effective sustainment strategies for a community-based suicide prevention program implemented in Tribal contexts through a participatory process of system dynamics modeling.

methodsThrough a series of workshops with teams implementing a suicide prevention program, we prioritized strategies for sustaining implementation and related health outcomes. We used system dynamics modeling and microsimulations to assess the impact of key strategies (increased funding, enhanced program management, and leadership development) on program sustainment outcomes and suicidal behavior among youth.

resultsEnhanced program management impacted sustainment by increasing simulated levels of community trust by 31 % and community and external collaborators by 10 %. Increased funding increased simulated resource availability by 46 % and staffing levels by 13 % over the simulated time frame. Among the three simulated sustainment strategies, enhanced program management most improved clinical outcomes, decreasing non-suicidal self-injury by 1.4 % and suicide attempts by 1.3 %.

conclusionsWe collaboratively developed a simulation model that assessed the relative impact of stakeholders' prioritized sustainment strategies. A multifaceted intervention for enhanced program management had the greatest impact on program sustainment outcomes. This approach can benefit Tribal communities who are considering methods to support vital community-based programs.
