Abstract:
Completed suicides reflect only a portion of the impact of suicidal behavior; sublethal behaviors cause morbidity and can signal treatable problems such as depression. There is no national quantification of nonlethal suicidal behaviors. The present study used a random‐digit‐dialed telephone survey to estimate the 12‐month incidence of suicidal ideation, planning, and attempts among U.S. adults. Of 5,238 respondents, 5.6% (representing about 10.5 million persons) reported suicidal ideation, 2.7% (about 2.7 million) made a specific suicide plan, and 0.7% (about 700,000) made a suicide attempt (estimate = 1.1 million attempts). Hence, suicidal behaviors are not uncommon and occur along a continuum ranging from ideation to completed suicides. Preventing nonlethal precursor behaviors may prevent deaths.

Abstract:
Suicides and suicidal behaviors are very important causes of mortality and morbidity and have become a serious global problem. More than 800,000 people die from suicide every year. Previous researches have established that lipids play an important role in the pathogenesis of suicide. Moreover, lipid levels might be a biological marker of suicide. A lot of researchers have tried to identify biological markers that might be related to depressive disorder, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia and suicidal behavior. It was also important to consider the usefulness of an additional tool for prevention actions. Metabolic deregulation, particularly low total cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins-cholesterol levels may cause higher suicide risk in patients with these psychiatric disorders.

Abstract:
Increasing number of suicide cases, especially in adolescents, becomes problems that require serious treatment. Adolescence is a period of transition and hormonal development that can affect the emotions or mood. It is known that before attempting suicide, there are signs of language or linguistic such as verbal and nonverbal as an indication of the suicidal behavior action. This systematic review aims to identify these signs based on the results of several studies. There were 12 articles that have reviewed, the results showed there are three aspect that can be identified: used language from the suicider; perception of suicider toward the behaviour; and observerd behaviours. Most of the suicider express the feeling of Hopeless, Self-balming, feeling depressed and lonely, and also withdraw from society. It is expectedthat the result can be used as basic data toindentify signs and symptoms of suicide in adolescents.

Abstract:
Purpose – Study samples, having responded to similar survey content, allowed examination of suicide risk factors for deployed soldiers relative to nondeployed or home station soldiers. Specific research questions addressed by this study are: First, what is the prevalence of suicidal behaviors among Army National Guard (ARNG) soldiers – deployed or not, and how do these rates compare with known US national and international rates? Second, what are stressful life events associated with suicidal risk? How do these compare between deployed and nondeployed soldiers? Third, what specifically about combat exposure makes soldiers at risk for suicide? And fourth, is there any evidence of stress-buffering effect between risk factors and suicidal behaviors? The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – Three data sources were used. First, the responding sample for the Unit Risk Inventory consisted of 180 company-sized units with a total of 12,567 responding soldiers. Second, the responding sample for the Unit Risk Inventory-Reintegration consisted of 50 company-sized units with a total of 4,567 soldiers. The third data source was all ARNG suicides for calendar years 2007 through 2012. For each calendar year, a random sample of 1,000 ARNG soldiers was drawn to represent nonsuicides. This resulted in a study sample size of 6,523, including the 523 suicides for the years 2007 through 2012 plus 1,000 nonsuicide cases for each calendar year. Findings – Prevalence of suicidal behaviors among soldiers was higher (for thoughts, plans, and attempts, respectively, 4-6, 1.3-2.2, and 0.7-0.08 percent) than among civilian populations (respectively, 2.6, 0.7, and 0.4 percent). Risk was highest among home station than deployed soldiers. Stressful life events associated with suicide risk included personal feelings of loneliness, anger, and frustration, followed by interpersonal behavioral problems, such as aggressive behavior toward a significant other and having committed a crime. Also evident are the beneficial effects (as a main effect and buffering effect) of feelings of cohesiveness, quality leaderships, and job satisfaction on suicidal behaviors. Research limitations/implications – Findings here were consistent with the stressor-strain hypothesis. Stressful life events were associated with suicide risk, especially, personal feelings of loneliness, anger, and frustration, followed by interpersonal behavioral problems, such as aggressive behavior toward a significant other and having committed a crime. Evident, too, were the beneficial effects of feelings of cohesiveness, quality leaderships, and job satisfaction on suicidal behaviors. Soldiers reporting these events were less likely to report suicidal behaviors and social support lessened the cumulative effect of risk factors on suicidal behaviors. Given these findings, it seems that suicide risk in the military is not uniquely different from that observed in civilian populations. The higher prevalence of suicides in the military likely has to do with proportionally more individuals who have historically shown to be at risk for suicide, namely, young males. Practical implications – Strong association of individual-level attributes with suicidal behaviors, such as age, gender, and race, suggest individual-level vulnerability to suicidal behaviors. This expectation is consistent with the stress/suicide vulnerability theory (Bryan, 2014; Nock et al., 2013). Such vulnerabilities may include negative affectivity (one of the Big Five personality dimensions) and early childhood trauma to suicidal behaviors (Griffith, 2012a, 2014). Social implications – Suicide, related constructs, and their underlying processes need to be further examined in future research. Their understanding would be useful in screening individuals most at risk for suicidal behaviors, with referral and treatment, if needed. Practically, such vulnerabilities in relation to what specific experiences could be determined, potentially describing which individuals are suited best to adapt to which environments. Originality/value – There has been much research on the increased suicides in the military, and to date, studies have focussed primarily on traumatic events, such as, deployments and combat exposure associated with suicidal behaviors. Yet, studies have almost exclusively examined the combat-suicide connection without reference to suicide risk factors among nondeployed or home station soldiers. This study fills this gap by examining survey responses to standardized questionnaires administered to ARNG soldiers during calendar year 2010 – one sample of deployed units either to Iraq or to Afghanistan and another sample of nondeployed or home station units.

Abstract:
Background A limited number of studies have examined the differences in suicide-related social media use behaviors between suicide ideators and suicide attempters or have sought to elucidate how these social media usage behaviors contributed to the transition from suicidal ideation to suicide attempt. Objective Suicide attempts can be acquired through suicide-related social media use behaviors. This study aimed to propose 3 suicide-related social media use behaviors (ie, attending to suicide information, commenting on or reposting suicide information, or talking about suicide) based on social cognitive theory, which proposes that successive processes governing behavior transition include attentional, retention, production, and motivational processes. Methods We aimed to examine the mediating role of suicide-related social media use behaviors in Chinese social media users with suicidal risks. A sample of 569 Chinese social media users with suicidal ideation completed measures on suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, and suicide-related social media use behaviors. Results The results demonstrated that suicide attempters showed a significantly higher level of suicidal ideation (t563.64=5.04; P<.001; two-tailed) and more suicide-related social media use behaviors, which included attending to suicide information (t567=1.94; P=.05; two-tailed), commenting on or reposting suicide information (t567=2.12; P=.03; two-tailed), or talking about suicide (t542.22=5.12; P<.001; two-tailed). Suicidal ideation also affected suicide attempts through the mediational chains. Conclusions Our findings thus support the social cognitive theory, and there are implications for population-based suicide prevention that can be achieved by identifying behavioral signals.

Abstract:
Suicide is a major public health priority, and its molecular mechanisms appear to be related to glial abnormalities and specific transcriptional changes. This study aimed to identify and synthesize evidence of the relationship between glial dysfunction and suicidal behavior to understand the neurobiology of suicide. As of 26 January 2024, 46 articles that met the inclusion criteria were identified by searching PubMed and ISI Web of Science. Most postmortem studies, including 30 brain regions, have determined no density or number of total Nissl-glial cell changes in suicidal patients with major psychiatric disorders. There were 17 astrocytic, 14 microglial, and 9 oligodendroglial studies using specific markers of each glial cell and further on their specific gene expression. Those studies suggest that astrocytic and oligodendroglial cells lost but activated microglia in suicides with affective disorder, bipolar disorders, major depression disorders, or schizophrenia in comparison with non-suicided patients and non-psychiatric controls. Although the data from previous studies remain complex and cannot fully explain the effects of glial cell dysfunction related to suicidal behaviors, they provide risk directions potentially leading to suicide prevention.

Abstract:
Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) study entitled Suicide Trends in At-Risk Territories (START) is an international multisite initiative that aims to stimulate suicide research and prevention across different areas of the globe. A central component of the study is the development of registration systems for fatal and nonfatal suicidal behaviors. Aims: This paper provides an overview of the data collected on suicidal behaviors from the participating locations in the START study. Method: Descriptive statistics on the data are presented in terms of age, sex, and method. Results: A greater proportion of suicide deaths occurred among males. In all areas except the Philippines more females than males engaged in nonfatal suicidal behaviors. Compared to Australia, Italy, New Zealand, the Philippines, and Hong Kong SAR, in the Pacific Islands suicide most often occurs in younger age groups. Results indicate notable variations between countries in choice of method. A greater proportion of suicides occurred by hanging in Pacific Islands, while inhalation of carbon monoxide, use of firearms, ingestion of chemicals and poisons, and drug overdose were the most frequent methods of choice in other areas. Conclusion: The information drawn from this study demonstrates the enormous variation in suicidal behavior across the areas involved in the START Study. Further research is needed to assess the reliability of the established data-recording systems for suicidal behaviors. The baseline data established in START may allow the development of suicide prevention initiatives sensitive to variation in the profile of suicide across different locations.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND Evidence is lacking on the risk of suicide-related behaviors (suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, suicide death) in youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D). PURPOSE We aimed to 1) determine the prevalence of suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and suicide deaths in adolescents and young adults (AYA) with T1D aged 10–24 years; 2) compare suicide-related behavior prevalence in youth with and without T1D; and 3) identify factors associated with suicide-related behaviors. DATA SOURCES A systematic search was conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, and PsycInfo up to 3 September 2023. STUDY SELECTION We included observational studies where investigators reported the prevalence of suicide-related behaviors among AYA aged 10–24 years with T1D. DATA EXTRACTION We collected data on study characteristics, data on prevalence of suicide-related behaviors, and data on associated factors. DATA SYNTHESIS We included 31 studies. In AYA with versus without T1D, pooled prevalence of suicidal ideation was 15.4% (95% CI 10.0–21.7; n = 18 studies) vs. 11.5% (0.4–33.3; n = 4), respectively, and suicide attempts 3.5% (1.3–6.7; n = 8) vs. 2.0% (0.0–6.4; n = 5). Prevalence of suicide deaths ranged from 0.04% to 4.4% among youth with T1D. Difficulties with T1D self-management were frequently reported to be associated with higher rates of suicide-related behaviors. However, findings on the association of glycemic levels and suicide-related behaviors were inconsistent. LIMITATIONS There was a considerable level of heterogeneity in meta-analysis of both suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. CONCLUSIONS Suicidal ideation and suicide attempts are prevalent in AYA with T1D. Current evidence does not suggest that these rates are higher among AYA with T1D than rates among those without.

Abstract:
Background: Unhealthy lifestyles constitute significant risk factors for adolescent suicide, and their detrimental effects may persist from adolescence into adulthood. This research study sought to examine how Body Mass Index (BMI), alongside various lifestyle behaviors among teenagers in Korea, correlates with suicidal thoughts, the formulation of suicide plans, and actual suicide attempts. Methods: The research examined unprocessed information collected during the 2022 Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (KYRBS), which was administered by the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA). Lifestyle factors associated with suicidal behavior were selected as independent variables. The sample was stratified according to BMI for further analysis. Logistic regression models were applied to assess the association between lifestyle factors and the risk of adolescent suicide. Results: The analysis identified significant correlations between unhealthy dietary patterns, hazardous drinking behavior, smoking, and a sleep duration of less than 5 h, all of which were associated with a heightened suicide risk among adolescents. Notably, underweight adolescents who had a sleep duration of less than 5 h demonstrated a markedly elevated risk of suicidal ideation (OR = 2.391, 95% CI [1.035–5.525]). Among overweight adolescents, frequent coffee consumption was significantly associated with both suicidal planning (OR = 1.850, 95% CI [1.133–3.020]) and suicide attempts (OR = 1.958, 95% CI [1.024–3.742]). Importantly, hazardous drinking behavior was strongly associated with suicide attempts (OR = 2.277, 95% CI [1.132–4.580]). Non-smoking behavior exhibited a significant relationship with a decreased likelihood of suicidal ideation (OR = 0.706, 95% CI [0.507–0.983]) and suicidal planning (OR = 0.528, 95% CI [0.299–0.930]). Furthermore, among obese adolescents, non-smoking behavior significantly decreased the risk of suicidal ideation compared to smoking (OR = 0.514, 95% CI [0.297–0.887]). Conclusions: The study revealed that the combined impact of unhealthy behaviors—smoking, eating an unhealthy breakfast, sleeping for less than 5 h, and hazardous drinking behavior—significantly affect suicide-related behaviors in adolescents. The interaction between BMI and lifestyle factors is a critical determinant of these behaviors. Specifically, sleep health exerts a substantial influence on suicide-related behaviors in underweight adolescents, while smoking strongly correlates with suicidal behaviors in overweight and obese adolescents. Targeted attention to the interplay of smoking, diet, sleep, and alcohol consumption with BMI is crucial for the early detection and prevention of adolescent suicide.

Abstract:
IntroductionSuicide is a global health problem. The elderly is the range with the highest suicide rate and suicidal behaviors are more lethal, with greater planning and less possibility of rescue. In the elderly, Major Depressive Disorder is the diagnosis most frequently associated with suicidal behavior. 15% of the elderly with a depressive picture commit suicide. Loneliness, the main cause of suicides in the elderly population.ObjectivesThe objective of the clinical case presented is to address the risk factors for suicide in the elderly.Methods80-year-old patient, widower who makes a suicide attempt by ingesting glyphosate. Personal history: Acute myocardial infarction 1 month ago. Not mental illness. Family stressors: illness of his granddaughter, loss of his son’s job. Personal stressors: Loss of autonomy due to ischemic heart disease. The patient was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit with acute pulmonary edema secondary to the suicide attempt. Psychopathological exploration: Conscious, oriented and collaborative. Depressive mood in relation to the stressors presented. Makes partial criticism of the suicide attempt, recognizes its seriousness and planning.ResultsDiagnosis: Moderate depressive episode. SAD PERSONS scale: 9 High risk.ConclusionsThe risk factors for suicide in older people can be medical, psychiatric, psychological, family environment and social - environmental factors. There are hardly any specific action protocols that allow early intervention and suicide prevention in the elderly. As social health professionals, we must work on the elaboration and application of these, since consummated suicide represents a major public health problem throughout the world.

The World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview suicide questionnaire was employed to assess suicidal behavior. Discrete-time survival analysis was used to study the cumulative age-of-onset distribution. The hazard function was calculated to assess the risk of onset of each suicidal behavior. Among 2062 participants, suicidal behaviors were endorsed by 22.6% of participants; 22.4% reported a lifetime history of suicidal ideation, 7.2% reported a history of planning, and 6.0% reported attempting suicide. Childhood abuse was most strongly associated with suicidal behavior, accounting for a 2.57-fold increased odds of suicidal ideation, nearly 3-fold increased odds of suicide planning, and 2.43-fold increased odds of suicide attempt. This study identified the highest prevalence of suicidal behavior in a population of pregnant women outside the USA. Diverse populations of pregnant women and their patterns of suicidal behavior transition must be further studied. The association between trauma and suicidal behavior indicates the importance of trauma-informed care for pregnant women.<br>Revisión por pares

Abstract:
Objective: College students may be at heightened risk for suicide and suicidal behavior due to maladaptive cognitive-emotional factors and failure to practice basic health behaviors. However, self-compassion and wellness behaviors may protect against risk. The relation between self-compassion and suicidal behavior and the contributing roles of depressive symptoms and wellness behaviors was examined. Participants: Participants were 365 undergraduate students. Data were collected in April 2015. Methods: A cross-sectional, survey design was employed. Participants completed measures assessing self-compassion, depressive symptoms, wellness behaviors, and suicidal behavior. Serial mediation analyses were conducted covarying age, sex, and ethnicity. Results: Self-compassion was inversely related to suicidal behavior, and this relationship was serially mediated by depressive symptoms and wellness behaviors. Conclusions: Self-compassion may protect against suicidal behavior, in part, due to reduced depressive symptoms and heightened engagement in wellness behaviors. Individual and campus-wide strategies promoting self-compassion and wellness behaviors may reduce suicide risk on college campuses.

Abstract:
Suicidality and self-harm behaviors among sex offenders remain underreported in the clinical literature and are often misunderstood in this complex population. The present study aims to identify rates of suicide attempts and self-injurious behaviors in a sample of 1,184 psychiatric inpatients, 462 of whom are sexual offenders. Between-group comparisons revealed significant differences in history of suicide attempts and self-harm behaviors, with sexual offenders evidencing greater rates of both. Significant psychiatric correlates of suicide attempts and self-harm behaviors among sex offenders varied by group and included a variety of psychiatric symptom presentations. These are compared with the general literature on suicide risk and the sex offender population. Implications for treatment of these behaviors in a sex offender population are discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) involves the deliberate damage of one’s own bodily tissue without suicidal intent. A number of psychological disorders and indicators of distress are correlated with the behavior, including suicidal behaviors (e.g. Whitlock & Knox, 2007), depression (e.g. Ross & Heath, 2002), and anxiety (e.g. Victor & Klonksy, 2014), and yet the research literature has been mixed on whether increased frequency of NSSI is correlated with increased levels of these variables. The present study hypothesized that these relationships are curvilinear. Data from a larger study were analyzed using curvilinear regression analyses, and hypotheses were partially supported. Curvilinear relationships were found between NSSI frequency and both depression and anxiety, such that the relationships were positive until approximately 300 incidents, after which they became negative. The relationship between NSSI and suicide ideation was positive and linear. Among the whole sample, there were curvilinear relationships between both NSSI and suicide attempts as well as NSSI and suicide threats. Among only the portion of the sample who reported a history of these variables, there was no relationship between frequency and suicide attempts, and a curvilinear relationship between frequency and suicide threats that declined after 325 incidents. Results add to the current understanding of NSSI frequency and provide support for evidence that conflict with the proposed frequency criterion for nonsuicidal self-injury disorder.

AbstractResearch concerning Black youth suicide and suicidal behavior is limited, yet the rates of these behaviors continue to rise in this population of youth. In children, 5–12 years, Black youth are two times more likely to die by suicide than their White peers, and suicide attempts among Black adolescents have increased by 73%. Understanding the risk factors associated with suicidal behavior in Black youth is imperative to create prevention efforts for Black youth. This chapter will discuss what is known concerning the topic of Black youth suicidal behavior and provide research, practice, and policy recommendations.

Abstract:
Suicide is the first leading cause of death among children and adolescents worldwide. Predictors of suicide-related behaviours might help in the task of intervening to avoid or monitor future suicide risks. In this paper, a sample of individuals who were taken to a Child Psychiatry Facility in Brazil was analyzed. Machine learning algorithms were used to generate models for predicting suicidal behaviour, and the features that better explain this complex behaviour were also analyzed. Results show a sensitivity of 0.83 and a specificity of 0.97.

Abstract:
Cannabis is the most commonly used substance that remains federally illegal in the United States. With its rising legality in many states across the nation, it is important to understand the influence that cannabis can have on a user's physical and mental well-being. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2022), suicide is among the top nine leading causes of death in the United States for individuals aged 10 to 64. Research suggests that individuals diagnosed with depression who experience suicidal ideation, plans, and attempts is positively correlated with both daily cannabis use and non-daily cannabis use and that this correlation is more significant in women than in men (Han et al., 2021). This study seeks to generalize this finding by investigating both the prevalence and intensity of 30-day cannabis use amongst individuals who endorse suicidal thoughts in the last 12 months and the moderating effect of gender identity on the relationship between 30-day cannabis use and suicidal thoughts in the last 12 months. This study will utilize a sample of college students who completed the American College Health Association-National College Health Assessment Survey sometime between the Fall academic semester of 2019 to the Spring academic semester of 2021. The survey was completed on campuses across the United States with data collected on students’ health habits, behaviors, and perceptions. This data set consists of 198,848 participants aged 18 to 98 years of age (MAge = 23.16), with 66.27% of participants identifying as cisgender women and 30.83% identified as cisgender men. Within the dataset, 40.30% of participants endorsed thinking about or planning suicide in the last 12 months and 19.34% of participants reported using cannabis in the last 30 days. We anticipate that individuals who reported cannabis use in the last 30 days will show an increase in suicidal ideation in the last 12 months compared to individuals who reported never using cannabis. Similarly, we anticipate that gender identity will moderate and strengthen the relation between cannabis use and suicidal ideation in such that individual who identify as women will have a stronger and more significant correlation between cannabis use and suicidal ideations compared to individuals who identify as men. If these results are supported, future research will be warranted to further investigate how the nuanced interaction between gender identity and cannabis use increases our understanding of the upward trend in suicidality among individuals with and without mental health diagnoses.

Abstract:
This research is aimed at identifying the relationship between character accentuations, affective and volitional disorders with suicidal motivation and suicidal behavior. To study the characteristics and relationship of suicidal behavior with psychological personality traits (in particular with depression and volitional disorders and character accentuation), a study was carried out in two groups of adolescents and young men (14 - 18 years old): those who attempted suicide (45) and those who did not attempt suicide. (53). Diagnostic tools: test "Suicidal motivation" (Vagin Yu.R., 1998), test "Anti-suicidal motivation" (Vagin Yu.R., 1998), "Scale of suicidal intention" (Beck AT), K. Leonhard's characterological questionnaire, test "Depression" , hospital scale of depression, normalized scale for the diagnosis of volitional disorders. Diagnostic information was received online. Mathematical processing of the data was carried out using the Mann-Whitney U-test, Spearman's correlation coefficient, and principal component analysis (latent structural analysis). Comparative analysis showed the heterogeneity of the groups in terms of the parameters studied, differences in character accentuation (hyperthymic, dysthymic), suicidal motivation (Anesthetic motivation), anti-suicidal motivation (Moral motivation, Narcissistic motivation, Cognitive hope, Temporary inflation), depression scale were revealed. The results of this research can be used in identifying a suicidally dangerous reference group, as well as in the prevention and prevention of suicidal behavior.

Abstract:
There is a paucity of cross-cultural research on youth suicidal behaviour. An understanding of the cultural aspects of suicidal behaviour is essential for the development of culturally appropriate suicide prevention and intervention strategies. In this study, meanings, cultural representations, attitudes, values and beliefs regarding youth suicide were explored in 700 young Italians, Indians and Australians. Participants were University students (18-24 years old) from Italy, India and Australia. Participants had to be at least second generation, i.e. both they and their parents were born in the countries included in the study. Data collection was through completion of a questionnaire with structured and semi-structured questions (e.g. case vignettes, word associations, attitude scale, open-ended questions) and focus groups. In this proceedings, findings about the attitudes towards suicide focusing on the differences/similarities by country, gender, spiritual beliefs and suicide risk will be presented and the implications of the findings for suicide risk assessment and treatment will be discussed.

Abstract:
Suicide rates vary considerably between nations. This observation suggests that sociocultural characteristics of nations might play an important role in explaining suicidal behavior. In this study we examined country-level associations between suicide rates and dimensions of cultural variability while adjusting for gross domestic product per capita. While some characteristics of modern culture such as intellectual autonomy and secular-rational values were associated with higher suicide rates, characteristics of postmodern societies such as self-expression values and egalitarian commitment were associated with lower suicide rates. Exploratory analyses also showed meaningful associations between suicide rates and other measures of cultural variability such as societal cynicism and long-term orientation. Gender differences were also observed, with hierarchy being positively associated to female but not male suicide rates.

Abstract:
Abstract The dynamic binding interactions between cell surface receptors and local bioactive ligands serves as the principal mechanism by which cells survey their microenvironment and accordingly modulate their behaviors, such as proliferation, differentiation, migration, and suicide. Using conventional and non-conventional microfabrication approaches to engineer well-defined cellular microenvironments, we are examining how cells recognize and respond to adhesive interactions with the insoluble extracellular matrix (ECM). We will discuss our approaches to control the architecture and geometry of the adhesive interactions, as well as our resulting progress in identifying and elucidating the mechanisms by which cells sense the physical, chemical, and structural information carried within the ECM. By developing these approaches to engineering cell-surface interactions, we hope to improve the interconnect between artificial surfaces and living cells.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Suicide is a leading cause of death in young people and an escalating public health crisis. We aimed to assess the effectiveness and harms of available treatments for suicidal thoughts and behaviors in youths at heightened risk for suicide. We also aimed to examine how social determinants of health, racism, disparities, care delivery methods, and patient demographics affect outcomes. Methods: We conducted a systematic review and searched several databases including MEDLINE®, Embase®, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and others from January 2000 to September 2024. We included randomized clinical trials (RCTs), comparative observational studies, and before-after studies of psychosocial interventions, pharmacological interventions, neurotherapeutics, emerging therapies, and combinations therapies. Eligible patients were youths (aged 5 to 24 years) who had a heightened risk for suicide, including youths who have experienced suicidal ideation, prior attempts, hospital discharge for mental health treatment, or command hallucinations; were identified as high risk on validated questionnaires; or were from other at-risk groups. Pairs of independent reviewers selected and appraised studies. Findings were synthesized narratively. Results: We included 65 studies reporting on 14,534 patients (33 RCTs, 13 comparative observational studies, and 19 before-after studies). Psychosocial interventions identified from the studies comprised psychotherapy interventions (33 studies, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality, Dynamic Deconstructive Psychotherapy, Attachment-Based Family Therapy, and Family-Focused Therapy), acute (i.e., 1 to 4 sessions/contacts) psychosocial interventions (19 studies, acute safety planning, family-based crisis management, motivational interviewing crisis interventions, continuity of care following crisis, and brief adjunctive treatments), and school/community-based psychosocial interventions (13 studies, social network interventions, school-based skills interventions, suicide awareness/gatekeeper programs, and community-based, culturally tailored adjunct programs). For most categories of psychotherapies (except DBT), acute interventions, or school/community-based interventions, there was insufficient strength of evidence and uncertainty about suicidal thoughts or attempts. None of the studies evaluated adverse events associated with the interventions. The evidence base on pharmacological treatment for suicidal youths was largely nonexistent at the present time. No eligible study evaluated neurotherapeutics or emerging therapies. Conclusion: The current evidence on available interventions intended for youths at heightened risk of suicide is uncertain. Medication, neurotherapeutics, and emerging therapies remain unstudied in this population. Given that most treatments were adapted from adult protocols that may not fit the developmental and contextual experience of adolescents or younger children, this limited evidence base calls for the development of novel, developmentally and trauma-informed treatments, as well as multilevel interventions to address the rising suicide risk in youths.

Full text
Abstract:
Objectives. This Systematic Review addresses the mental health of the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and 911 telecommunicator workforces. We addressed Key Questions (KQs) related to the: (1) incidence, prevalence, and severity of mental health and occupational stress issues; (2) benefits and harms of interventions to promote resistance and resilience regarding these issues; (3) contextual and implementation factors for practices to address these issues; and (4) future research needs. Data sources. We searched Medline®, Embase®, Cochrane CENTRAL, PsycINFO®, CINAHL®, journals not indexed in Medline®, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Websites from January 1, 2001, to June 11, 2024. To increase applicability to the U.S. decision-making context, we restricted to studies conducted in high-income countries. Review methods. We used DistillerSR® for screening and the Systematic Review Data Repository Plus for data extraction. We assessed the risk of bias, conducted meta-analyses, and evaluated strength of evidence (SoE) using standard methods. We registered the protocol in PROSPERO (registration number CRD42023465325). Results. We included 187 studies (2 randomized controlled trials, 1 nonrandomized trial, 5 pre-post studies, 6 cohort studies, and 173 cross-sectional studies). KQ1: We included 179 studies. No study reported on incidence of any outcome. Among telecommunicators during routine practice, prevalence estimates were: any depression, 15.5 percent; suicidal ideation, 12.4 percent; suicide plans, 5.7 percent; suicide attempts, 0.7 percent; alcohol abuse, 15.5 percent; high/extreme peritraumatic distress, 5 percent; high secondary traumatic stress, 16.3 percent; and acute stress disorder, 17 percent (low SoE for each). Among telecommunicators after critical incidents, the prevalence of high and medium general stress were 39.7 and 28.2 percent, respectively (low SoE). Among EMS clinicians during routine practice, prevalence estimates were: suicidal ideation, 33 percent; suicide plans, 8.7 to 10.9 percent; and suicide attempts, 2.8 to 5.6 percent (moderate SoE). Among EMS clinicians during routine practice or after critical incidents, the prevalence of depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), burnout, and stress varied considerably (low SoE for each). Regarding severity (based on mean levels), among telecommunicators during routine practice, depressive symptoms and stress were mild/low to moderate and burnout was mild to severe (moderate SoE). Peritraumatic distress was moderate and secondary traumatic stress was mild (low SoE). Among telecommunicators after critical incidents, mean levels of burnout and general stress were moderate (low SoE). Among EMS clinicians during routine practice, mean levels of depressive symptoms were minimal to mild, while mean levels of anxiety and operational and organizational job stress were mild to moderate, mean levels of general stress and burnout were mild to severe, mean levels of secondary traumatic stress were mild, and mean alcohol use was low risk (moderate SoE). The Suicide Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R) mean score was 4.92 (95% confidence interval, 2.44 to 7.39; 4 studies; SBQ-R ≥ 7 implies at risk of suicide; moderate SoE). The mean level of moral injury was moderate (low SoE). Among EMS clinicians after critical incidents, mean levels of depressive symptoms were minimal to mild and for anxiety were mild to moderate (moderate SoE). Some modifying factors (e.g., more trauma exposure, more hours per week, more burnout, higher call volumes) were associated with poor outcomes. KQ2: We included nine studies. Mindfulness-building interventions targeting resistance and resilience among EMS clinicians were associated with reduced burnout at up to 6 months of follow-up (low SoE). KQ3: We included five studies. We found no evidence regarding effective telecommunicator workforce practices to improve mental health and occupational stress issues. KQ4: Future research should evaluate mindfulness-based interventions and prioritized outcomes, using randomized trials or non-randomized studies that account for important confounders. Conclusions. This Systematic Review documents the prevalence and severity of mental health and occupational stress issues in the EMS and telecommunicator workforces. To strengthen preventive and early supportive interventions, attention should be given to factors associated with poor outcomes.

Suicide aftercare is designed to increase access to and engagement with care to prevent repetition of suicidal behaviour or self-harm. Across the country, various models of aftercare are being implemented, including non-clinical and community-based services. Most of these services are evidence-informed but are yet to be comprehensively evaluated. This review examines which suicide aftercare services have been found to be effective in reducing further suicide attempts, with a focus on the components that contribute to their effectiveness.

Abstract:
Objectives. To assess the impact of implementation strategies for mental health and substance use screening and counseling for children and adolescents in primary care as recommended by the United States Preventive Services Task Force and Bright Futures Periodicity Schedule. Data sources. PubMed®, PsycInfo®, Cochrane Library, and the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature®, as well as gray literature sources, reference lists, and technical experts. Review methods. We followed the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Methods Guide for Effectiveness and Comparative Effectiveness Reviews, adapting it with classifications from the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change (ERIC) and the Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (EPOC) taxonomies. We searched for studies published from January 1, 2010, through July 26, 2024, and selected studies that compared strategies for implementing mental health and substance use screening and counseling interventions for children and adolescents in primary care with another implementation strategy or no strategy. We evaluated randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials and interrupted time series studies. Studies conducted outside the United States were evaluated separately. Results. We included 11 studies from the United States and 2 from other countries. Studies focused on screening and counseling for depression and suicide risk, eating disorders, substance use disorders, and general behavioral health risk factors. Implementation approaches were multifaceted and consisted of learning collaboratives, providing support to clinicians, adding new team members to incorporate behavioral health into primary care, and using technology. Overall, our confidence in the available evidence was limited, with numerous outcomes receiving a very low strength of evidence rating. When compared to clinical interventions where only minimal or no strategies were employed, the use of implementation strategies consistently resulted in higher screening rates and increased initiation of treatments. Few studies assessed patient outcomes, and clinician support neither reduced risk behaviors nor increased referrals for specialty substance use treatment. Different types of implementation approaches appeared to have comparable effectiveness. The evidence on the impact of implementation strategies on inequities in the delivery of recommended interventions for populations at risk for disparities was limited to a single study focused on clinician support for screening for depression and suicide risk, and yielded very low strength of evidence. We did not identify any studies on implementation of screening for anxiety or maternal depression among teenage mothers. Furthermore, none of the included studies assessed the acceptability or feasibility of the implementation approaches utilized, nor were patients’ quality of life or adverse events assessed. Conclusions. The identified implementation approaches may increase screening and brief interventions. The evidence, however, is uncertain. Different types of implementation strategies appear to have comparable effectiveness.

Full text
Abstract:
In Tasmania, there have been 841 deaths by suicide over the past 10 years. Exposure to suicide significantly increases the risk of adverse mental health and suicidal behaviour among those affected, making effective postvention services a crucial component of suicide prevention strategies. This Evidence Check aimed to find which suicide postvention service models are effective in reducing distress in family, friends, and communities following a suicide. The Evidence Check included 19 peer-reviewed research studies from the US, Australia, and Europe, and 14 guidelines. The studies reviewed various group and individual interventions in settings such as schools and communities, focusing on populations including schoolchildren and military survivors of suicide. Despite the overall weak quality of studies, some Australian studies indicated the effectiveness of peer-support groups in reducing psychological distress among those bereaved by suicide. The guidelines reviewed demonstrated reasonable development rigour, with frameworks based on the continuum of suicide survivorship and the public health model. There is limited evidence on the effectiveness of postvention interventions and service delivery due to a scarcity of research. The overall quality of the studies was weak, and no universal interventions were identified. The findings suggest that certain components of postvention could be beneficial for individuals bereaved by suicide in Tasmania. A public health approach is recommended to meet the diverse needs of individuals and communities and to align postvention efforts in Tasmania with national and international suicide prevention strategies.

Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.23970/ahrqepcregistryoutcome.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: Major depressive disorder is a common mental disorder. Many pressing questions regarding depression treatment and outcomes exist, and new, efficient research approaches are necessary to address them. The primary objective of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility and value of capturing the harmonized depression outcome measures in the clinical workflow and submitting these data to different registries. Secondary objectives include demonstrating the feasibility of using these data for patient-centered outcomes research and developing a toolkit to support registries interested in sharing data with external researchers. Methods: The harmonized outcome measures for depression were developed through a multi-stakeholder, consensus-based process supported by AHRQ. For this implementation effort, the PRIME Registry, sponsored by the American Board of Family Medicine, and PsychPRO, sponsored by the American Psychiatric Association, each recruited 10 pilot sites from existing registry sites, added the harmonized measures to the registry platform, and submitted the project for institutional review board review Results: The process of preparing each registry to calculate the harmonized measures produced three major findings. First, some clarifications were necessary to make the harmonized definitions operational. Second, some data necessary for the measures are not routinely captured in structured form (e.g., PHQ-9 item 9, adverse events, suicide ideation and behavior, and mortality data). Finally, capture of the PHQ-9 requires operational and technical modifications. The next phase of this project will focus collection of the baseline and follow-up PHQ-9s, as well as other supporting clinical documentation. In parallel to the data collection process, the project team will examine the feasibility of using natural language processing to extract information on PHQ-9 scores, adverse events, and suicidal behaviors from unstructured data. Conclusion: This pilot project represents the first practical implementation of the harmonized outcome measures for depression. Initial results indicate that it is feasible to calculate the measures within the two patient registries, although some challenges were encountered related to the harmonized definition specifications, the availability of the necessary data, and the clinical workflow for collecting the PHQ-9. The ongoing data collection period, combined with an evaluation of the utility of natural language processing for these measures, will produce more information about the practical challenges, value, and burden of using the harmonized measures in the primary care and mental health setting. These findings will be useful to inform future implementations of the harmonized depression outcome measures.
