Article in Journal of research in health sciences, 2026. 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
backgroundThe present study was designed to assess the mortality rate and years of life lost due to suicide in Khuzestan province .
methodsIn this study, data on all deaths caused by suicide in Khuzestan province were obtained from the population-based Electronic Death Registration System (EDRS). Crude and age-standardized suicide mortality rates (ASR) were calculated based on gender and year of death over the study period. Subsequently, the number of years of life lost (YLL) was calculated based on age and gender. Joinpoint regression analysis was used to examine the trends in crude mortality rates, age-standardized rates (ASRs), and YLL rates.
resultsDuring the study years, 1904 suicide deaths occurred in Khuzestan province . Of these deaths, 1157 (60.8%) occurred in men. The highest number of deaths in both genders occurred due to hanging. According to the joinpoint regression, the 12-year trend of YLL rate due to premature mortality was stable. The average annual percentage change (AAPC) was -0.4% (95% CI -4.5 to 7.9,
conclusionThe findings revealed a significant increase in age-standardized mortality rate among women and a stable trend among men, and a slight rise in crude mortality rate in men. To address these concerns, it is recommended that targeted region-specific prevention programs be strengthened.
