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

Suicide is the leading cause of death among children and young people under 35 in the United Kingdom (UK), and suicide rates in this group are rising. Schools are considered an appropriate and logical setting for suicide prevention activities, with universal access to a wide range of young people. However, schools are complex settings, meaning research projects often encounter a number of logistical, engagement, and implementation challenges. This commentary presents learnings from a regionally based feasibility trial of an integrated response to suicide risk among UK secondary schools. We explore the barriers and challenges to engaging and conducting research on suicide and self-harm prevention with young people and offer recommendations for researchers.
