Prevalence of Suicide Among Adolescents Before and After the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Review in Cureus, 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
This systematic review examines the prevalence of adolescent suicide before and after the COVID-19 pandemic and analyzes associated changes and contributing factors. A literature search was conducted for studies published between 2019 and 2023 in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, focusing on populations aged 12-19 years that reported suicide prevalence both before and during the pandemic. Only peer-reviewed studies meeting the inclusion criteria were analyzed. A total of 20 studies met the criteria and were included. The findings indicate a significant increase in suicidal ideation and suicide attempts among adolescents, particularly females. Major contributing factors included social isolation, academic stress, and reduced access to mental healthcare. Overall, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a substantial negative impact on adolescent mental health. This highlights the urgent need for targeted interventions and strengthened support systems to prevent suicide and promote resilience in this vulnerable population.
