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

Despite reductions in cardiovascular, cancer, and infectious disease, comparable public-health improvements in mental health have not materialized. Global dissemination of trainings and programs have not translated into reduced burden of mental health conditions. Detection in primary care remains uncommon, sustained delivery of psychological services is difficult, few governments prioritize mental health, and reliable data are scarce. A largely unexamined factor is how we talk about suicide. How suicide is discussed shapes whether primary care workers feel able to engage, what organizations incorporate psychosocial programs, and whether mental-health data are accurate and representative. Drawing on three decades of work, this
