Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.

What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07913425). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: University of Haifa. Recruitment status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 40 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Self Injurious Behavior, Self Injurious Behavior Without Suicidal Intent. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Cutting Down Program - a three-month cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy focused on reducing self-injury urges and behaviors in adolescents. Primary outcome measures: Self injury behaviors , (1) Before the first treatment meeting (2) 2 months after the treatment starts (after the 2nd parent session), (3) 3 months after the treatment starts (towards the end of the treatment), (4) 3 months after the end of the treatment (follow up).; Self injury thoughts , (1) Before the first treatment meeting (2) 2 months after the treatment starts (after the 2nd parent session), (3) 3 months after the treatment starts (towards the end of the treatment), (4) 3 months after the end of the treatment (follow up).. Brief summary: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), defined as deliberate self-inflicted destruction of body tissue without intent to die, is particularly prevalent during mid-adolescence, with prevalence estimated around 16-22% in community samples. Although distinct from suicidality, NSSI is a strong predictor of suicidal attempts. Yet intervention studies addressing self-injury urges and behaviors in youth remain scarce. The Cutting Down Program (CDP) is currently one of the most promising interventions for adolescents who self-harm. This three-month intervention, evidenced in a randomized controlled trial, integrates techniques from cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and dialectic-behavioral (DBT) therapies. Recently, an updated CDP protocol was developed to more directly address suicidality and involve parents in the treatment. This study will test the updated protocol with a sample of adolescents who self-harm, recruited from schools and treated by educational psychologists of the Israeli Psychological and Counseling Services (SHEFI). We will examine the intervention's effects on mental health outcomes (e.g., self-injury) and on potential mediators (emotion regulation and parental emotion socialization), to clarify its mechanisms of change.
