From: Active contact and follow-up interventions to prevent repeat suicide attempts during high-risk periods among patients admitted to emergency departments for suicidal behavior: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Fig. 3

Secondary Outcome: Suicide attempts within 12 months for active contact and follow-up interventions. a The meta-analysis included 11 trials [24, 27, 30, 37, 39,40,41, 44, 50,51,52]. The number of included participants and the number of participants who made repeat suicide attempts in each trial are shown in Table 1. To assess heterogeneity, we used the I2 and Cochrane Q statistics to examine heterogeneity among the trials in each analysis. We regarded heterogeneity as substantial if I2 was greater than 30% or if the Cochrane Q test produced a low p-value (< 0.10). b We investigated publication bias by constructing a funnel plot and by using the Egger test
