“…22,82 This association can be explained by the fact that elderly people with problematic alcohol use might have difficulty in making decisions as well as controlling their impulses. 83 Another possible explanation could also be that elderly people experiencing suicidal behavior might use alcohol as self-medication or to hide themselves from reality. 83 Currently there are numerous evidences that problematic alcohol use is responsible for brain atrophy, dementia, and severe memory impairment.…”

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the magnitude and associated factors of alcohol use disorder among the elderly living in 3 towns in South West Ethiopia. Method: Cross-sectional community-based study was done among 382 elderly people aged 60 or more from February to March 2022 in South West Ethiopia. The participants were selected by a systematic random sampling method. Alcohol use disorder, quality of sleep, cognitive impairment, and depression were assessed by using AUDIT, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Standardized Mini Mental State Examination, and geriatric depression scale, respectively. Also, suicidal behavior, elder abuse, and other clinical and environmental factors were assessed. The data was entered into Epi Data Manager Version 4.0.2 before being exported to SPSS Version 25 for analysis. A logistic regression model was used, and variables with a P-value less than .05 in the final fitting model were stated as independent predictors of alcohol use disorder (AUD). Result: The magnitude of alcohol use disorder, current alcohol use, and life-time alcohol use among the elderly was 27.5%, 52.4%, and 89.3%, respectively. Also, 7%, 23%, 8.9%, and none of the elderly had nicotine, khat, inhalants, and cannabis use disorder, respectively. Furthermore, AUD was associated with cognitive impairment (AOR, 95% CI; 2.79 (1.47-5.30)), poor sleep quality (AOR, 95% CI; 3.27 (1.23-8.69)), chronic medical illness (AOR, 95% CI; 2.12 (1.20-3.74)), and suicidal ideation (AOR, 95% CI; 5.27 (2.21-12.60)). Conclusion: Problematic alcohol use was higher among the elderly, and cognitive impairment, poor sleep quality, having chronic medical illness, and suicidal ideation were risk factors for AUD. Therefore, community level screening for AUD and comorbid risk factors among this particular age group and managing them is crucial to prevent further complications due to AUD.

“…Por su parte, el estudio de Chesin (22) realizado en estudiantes universitarios de Estados Unidos, evidenció una prevalencia mayor de ideación suicida (43,0%) que lo reportado en esta investigación, y precisamente la evidencia científica ha sido contundente frente a la relación entre este desenlace y ser adolescente o joven, tal como lo demostró Hernández-Bello (3) en su revisión sistemática, Tran (6) en estudiantes Vietnamitas de 13 a 15 años, Pineda-Roa en jóvenes homosexuales (21) y Light Tsegay en su metaanálisis (23) . Sin embargo, y de manera contradictoria en este estudio, ser menor de 30 años reduce la prevalencia de ideación suicida (RPa: 0,77 IC95%:0,39 -1,53), resultado que es coherente con las nuevas hipótesis que relacionan la edad avanzada (Van Orden & Conwell, 2016) y la ideación suicida (24) .…”

Introducción: la ideación suicida hace referencia al pensamiento que va desde una idea vaga de suicidio hasta un plan organizado de suicidio. Objetivo: se buscó determinar la asociación entre variables demográficas y psicosociales con la ideación suicida en personas con intento de suicidio en población de Sabaneta durante el 2017 a 2020. Metodología: se realizó un estudio transversal, retrospectivo y analítico, donde se calcularon razones de prevalencia por medio de un modelo lineal generalizado con familia binomial y enlace log con fines explicativos. Resultados: en 231 registros de personas con intento de suicidio, se observó una prevalencia de ideación suicida del 38,6%, los hallazgos del modelo ajustado demostraron que la edad <30 años (RPa:0,77 IC95%: 0,39–1,53), ser mujer (RPa:1,42 IC95%:0,74–2,72), residencia urbana (RPa:2,01 IC95%:0,76–5,29), régimen subsidiado (RPa:1,97 IC95%:0,87–4,46), hospitalización (RPa:1,50 IC95%:0,80–2,82), enfermedad crónica (RPa:2,69 IC95%:0,49–14,62), intentos previos (RPa:3,13 IC95%:1,64–5,98), antecedentes familiares de suicidio (RPa:1,58 IC95%:0,53–4,67), plan de suicidio (RPa:4,47 IC95%:1,67–11,96), abuso de alcohol (RPa:1,36 IC95%:0,37–5,03), trastorno psiquiátrico (RPa:0,54 IC95%:0,16–1,78), trastorno depresivo (RPa:2,92 IC95%:0,94–9,03), trastorno de personalidad (RPa:1,96 IC95%:0,52–7,43) y trastorno bipolar (RPa:1,08 IC95%:0,30–3,95) se asociaron con ideación suicida. Conclusiones: se concluye que las variables que explican la ideación suicida en personas con intento de suicido son: edad <30 años, sexo (mujer), residencia (urbana), afiliación al régimen subsidiado, hospitalización previa, antecedente de enfermedad crónica, intentos previos, antecedentes familiares de suicidio, tener un plan de suicidio, abuso de alcohol y antecedentes de trastorno: psiquiátrico, depresivo, de personalidad y bipolaridad.

“…These results are in line with those reported on depression in the Encuesta de Salud, Bienestar y Envejecimiento de Colombia [Colombian Health, Well-being and Aging Survey], carried out in 2016, in which they reported a prevalence of 41%, although they did not provide data on anxiety ( Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social, 2015 ). In Colombia, the study of depression in older adults has been gaining value, since suicide attempts in this population can be 4 times more eﬀective than in young people ( Gómez-Restrepo et al, 2013 ), which has made that the interest in the study of happiness has not been only perceived as an outcome, but as a mediator or an additional exposure to variables such as depression or social support ( Gómez-Restrepo et al, 2013 ; Ramírez Arango et al, 2020 ; Segura-Cardona et al, 2015 ).…”

Introduction: Aging is a phenomenon that has increased worldwide as a result of a higher life expectancy, evidencing situations typical of this stage, which can impact the happiness of individuals, who deserve attention and approach from mental health and public health. Objective: To explore the association between sociodemographic characteristics, medical history and symptoms, emotional state, social support, cognitive performance, and functional dependence, in relation to happiness in older adults in a rural area of Túquerres, Nariño. Method: Cross-sectional study of association. Results: There were 252 records in total, corresponding to the data of rural older adults. A multivariate linear regression was performed, finding an association with happiness in the variables of age (βa = 0.41; CI95% 0.09–0.73), socioeconomic level (βa = -0.22; C95% -0.58 – 0, 13), education level (βa = 0.41; 95% CI -0.68 – 1.49), occupation (βa = 0.59; 95% CI -0.48 – 1.67), having chronic disease (βa = 0.42; 95% CI 0.12–0.73), breathing difficulties (βa = -0.25; 95% CI -0.51–0.02), joint pain (βa = 0, 55; 95% CI 0.26 – 0.83), depression symptoms (βa = -0.21; 95% CI -0.48 – 0.06]) or anxiety (βa = 0.40; 95% CI 0 .72 – 0.07), and social support (βa = -0.27; CI95% -0.52 – -0.02). Discussion: this population has unfavorable socioeconomic and health conditions that impact their perception of happiness. Conclusion: happiness is a multicausal phenomenon that in older adults is part of the result of the interaction of variables and historical decisions at a political, economic, and social level.
