Occupational risk factors for suicide: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Medicine, 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
backgroundSuicide is one of the major health problems that imposes a heavy burden on the health system. Currently, there is a notable absence of review and meta-analysis studies capable of exploring a broader spectrum of occupational factors associated with dimensions of suicide. This study was conducted to investigate occupational risk factors related to suicide dimensions by systematic review and meta-analysis.
methodsPreferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses have been used. The databases searched in this study included: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. The defined period included the beginning of the formation of these databases until August 2023, and this search was limited to studies published and available in English. The random effects method was used in a pool of different studies. In this research, the odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was used in the report of findings.
resultsThe relationship between job demands and suicide dimensions was equal to the odds ratio of 1.29 with a CI between 1.11 and 1.50. This relationship was equal to the odds ratio1.15 with a CI between 1.08 and 1.23. Also, other risk factors for suicide were: conflict at work, job strain, job insecurity, workplace bullying, job stress, burnout, and work-family conflict.
conclusionThis study showed how much the work environment and related risk factors can play a role in different aspects of suicide. Therefore, in the policies related to health at work, it is necessary to pay attention to the field of monitoring and screening of mental health in the work environment.
