Associating factors of suicide and repetition following self-harm: A systematic review and meta-analysis of longitudinal studies

Suicidal attempts and self‐poisoning: 1‐year retrospective cohort study from the quaternary hospital in Thai metropolitan area

“…These factors correlated with well‐established risk factors of suicide in the youth population 29,30 . More than half of all patients (61.8%) had prior history of nonfatal suicide and had psychiatric follow‐up, ironically associated with reattempting suicide 31 …”

“…29,30 More than half of all patients (61.8%) had prior history of nonfatal suicide and had psychiatric follow-up, ironically associated with reattempting suicide. 31 Personality comorbidity was found to be the only significant factor after multiple regression analysis. The absence of association of other factors could be due to a limited number of patients included in the study and the missing data.…”

Association of sociodemographic, proximal, and distal clinical factors with current suicidal ideation: Findings from a nonclinical sample of young adults

“…A recent meta-analysis estimated the risk of fatal outcomes of NSSI at 1.3% within 1 year; however, this risk appeared to be almost threefold higher in a 3-year follow-up [ 105 ]. Also, it has been found that the increased risk of suicide following NSSI in longitudinal studies is associated with male gender, multiple episodes of NSSI, a diagnosis of psychiatric disorder, and physical illness [ 106 ]. It has been suggested that the relationship between NSSI and increased suicidal risk can be explained by the acquired capability for suicide, whereby repetitive exposure to emotionally provocative and physically painful events results in increased tolerance to pain and decreased fear of death [ 107 ].…”

Prevalence and risk factors for suicide attempts in prison

“…This could potentially explain our finding that suicide attempt prevalence did not significantly differ between sexes, in that the incidence might be similar for men and women but that repetition is more common in women (Hawton et al, 2014). Future work should consider a more fine-grained assessment to examine whether risk factors differ between a first and repeat episode of suicide attempt during imprisonment (Larkin et al, 2014;Liu et al, 2022;Roy et al, 2014;Stoliker, 2021). Furthermore, all included cross-sectional studies relied on retrospective self-report of suicide attempts using a single-item assessment, which is subject to misreporting and can lead to bias in prevalence estimates and measures of association (Borschmann et al, 2017;Mars et al, 2016;Millner et al, 2015).…”
