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

backgroundThe progression from suicidal ideation to attempt is a multi-stage process, yet it is unknown how different victimization contexts contribute uniquely to each stage. We compared the associations of school-based peer bullying and family-based childhood maltreatment with suicidal ideation, suicide planning, and suicide attempts in adolescents to identify the primary intervention target for halting suicidality at each step.

methodsA multicenter, school-based survey of 18,910 Chinese students aged 12-22 years was conducted. Participants were categorized into four groups: none, peer bullying only, childhood maltreatment only, and both. Logistic regression and population attributable fraction analyses were applied.

resultsOverall, 10.9% reported peer bullying only, 18.7% maltreatment only, and 8.9% both. Peer bullying showed a stronger association with suicidal ideation than maltreatment (OR 1.35; 95% CI:1.14-1.60), particularly among females < 15 years (OR 1.68; 95% CI:1.21-2.32). Childhood maltreatment had a stronger link to suicide attempts (OR 1.34; 95% CI: 1.06-1.70) and a higher PAF (13% vs. 2% for peer bullying). Among ideators, maltreatment increased progression to attempts (OR 1.70, 95% CI: 1.32-2.19). Notably, co-exposure sharply raised the risk of suicide attempts (PAF: 25%).
