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

backgroundLGBTQ+ youth experience greater minority stress, poorer sleep, and heightened suicidal ideation (SI) compared to non-LGBTQ+ youth. Despite the high within-person variability of these biopsychosocial factors, few studies have utilized intensive longitudinal methods to examine their daily associations.

methodThis study addresses this gap by enrolling LGBTQ+ youth aged 13-24 with past-year SI and current depressive symptoms into a smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) study, administering three surveys per day for 28 consecutive days. Data were aggregated at the day level. Fifty participants (average age = 18.52 years, 78.0 % non-Hispanic White) contributed a total of 999 surveys. Using linear multilevel models with varying intercepts, we tested whether sleep quality or sleep duration mediated and/or moderated the within-person associations between daily minority stress (e.g., discrimination, rejection) and next-day active SI (desire to kill oneself), passive SI (desire to not stay alive), and non-suicidal self-injury ideation intensity.

resultsMediation analyses were non-significant; however, moderation analyses indicated that better sleep quality, but not sleep duration, rendered the association between minority stress and next-day passive SI negative.

conclusionsFindings suggest that better sleep quality might mitigate the suicidogenic impact of minority stress from one day to the next. Public health and clinical interventions aimed at reducing minority stress exposure and enhancing sleep quality may hold promise in lowering suicide risk among LGBTQ+ youth.
