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

backgroundGiven the prevalence of suicidal thoughts and attempts during adolescence, this stage of life is critically important in assessing and evaluating suicide risk. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of adolescents who have attempted suicide.

methodsThis qualitative study was conducted using an interpretive phenomenological approach. Nineteen participants were purposefully selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria until data saturation was reached. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews using open-ended questions. MAXQDA software was used for data management, while Van Manen's six-step method was applied for data analysis.

resultsThe main themes and their sub-themes included Antecedents (Before the Suicide Antecedents, During the Suicide Antecedents, and Post-Suicide Antecedents), Suicide Risk Factors (Individual Causes, Family Causes, Social, Cultural, and Environmental Causes, and Psychological Causes), Suicide Barriers (Psychological Barriers and Protective Factors), and Consequences (Physiological Consequences and Psychological Consequences).

conclusionThe findings of this study indicate that adolescent suicide attempts are influenced by complex and multifaceted factors, including individual, familial, social, cultural, and psychological elements. Therefore, adopting multidimensional approaches and fostering collaboration among relevant institutions are essential to reducing adolescent suicide rates. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
