Table 3. Proportion of participants at high risk for suicidal behavior at T0, T1, and T2.

SIDAS scores ≥ 21 (high risk) N (%) ORa [95% CI] t p NNTd [95% CI]
LifeBuoy (n, %) LifeBuoy-C (n, %)
T0 136 (59.6) 129 (57.1) 0.97 [0.89, 1.07] t(930) = −0.55 0.58 -
T1b 36 (24.7) 62 (44.9) 1.22 [1.10, 1.37] t(930) = 3.59 <0.001 5 [4, 11]
T2c 26 (26.0) 39 (39.8) 1.14 [1.00, 1.30] t(930) = 2.01 0.04 8 [4, 119]

aOR reflects odds of being flagged as at risk for the LifeBuoy-C condition relative to the LifeBuoy condition. The generalized linear mixed model used to generate the ORs incorporated all participants with at least 1 data point.

bNumber of participants who completed T1 SIDAS assessment n = 284 (n = 138 control, 146 intervention).

cNumber of participants who completed T2 SIDAS assessment n = 198 (n = 98 control, 100 intervention).

dNNT: the number of participants that need to be treated to obtain one participant scoring < 21 on the SIDAS.

OR, odds ratio; NNT, number needed to treat; SIDAS, Suicidal Ideation Attributes Scale; T0, baseline; T1, postintervention; T2, 3-month postintervention.
