Description
Pascal Faltermeier and co-authors set out a protocol for a scoping review of how psychiatric trials handle suicidality. Suicide is a leading cause of death, above all among people with mental disorders, yet trials vary in whether they even track suicidal thoughts, attempts, and deaths. The review will survey randomized trials in high-impact journals published since January twenty twenty-two.
For each trial, the team will record whether suicidality was assessed at all and, if so, by what means. The authors say the review will be the first of its kind for modern trials. Joined with a wider initiative on patient-important outcomes, it aims to guide future researchers in choosing outcomes that matter to patients. They note the focus on top journals may limit how far the findings generalize.
