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

Introduction: We performed a taxometric investigation into the underlying structure of suicidal ideation in two diverse samples of nonclinical adult populations. Methods: We relied upon one sample of 547 individuals, aged 18-78, who responded to the Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation (BSS), and one sample of 989 participants aged 18-64 who responded to the Suicidal Ideation Attributes Scale (SIDAS). We analyzed the data using different taxometric techniques: MAMBAC, MAXEIG, and L-Mode. Results: Our findings suggest ambiguity in the suicidal ideation latent structure (Mean CCFI BSS dataset = 0.46; Mean CCFI SIDAS dataset = 0.45) the results neither indicate any clear tendency toward taxonicity nor toward dimensionality. Conclusion: We discuss them based on the possibility that suicidal ideation may represent a complex construct encompassing multiple components.
