“…There is a plethora of evidence supporting the significant causational relationship between childhood traumatic experience and suicide in difference populations (33)(34)(35). It is possible that stressful traumatic experience could largely waste a patient's mental energy and resources, which makes them more vulnerable to mental disorders (36).…”

Objective: Suicide is one of the main reasons cited behind the death rate of cancer, and suicidal ideation (SI) is the first step toward it. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and associates of suicidal ideation in newly-diagnosed Chinese cancer patients. Methods: This multicenter study was conducted from January 2018 to September 2019. Eligible participants were asked to complete a Case Record Form (CRF), the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), General Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire (GAD-7), Fear of Cancer Recurrence Questionnaire (FCRQ-7), and McGill Pain Questionnaire-Visual Analogue Scale (MPQ-VAS). Univariate analyses and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted for assessment.

“… 4 5 Untreated, PTSD results in considerable morbidity (increase in years lived with disability), higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease, premature mortality due to an accelerated ageing process and a higher risk of suicide. 6–9 Owing to the high burden of PTSD and the associated negative adversities, PTSD should be identified and treated timeously. 10 11 However, little has been done to identify and treat PTSD in low resource sub-Saharan African (SSA) settings where multiple civil and tribal wars, social strife and natural disasters such as floods and landslides, have led to mass exposure of the population to traumatic events.…”

Post-traumatic stress disorder psychological interventions in sub-Saharan Africa: protocol for a systematic review of the literature

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

IntroductionUntreated post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) results in considerable morbidity and higher risk of mortality. However, little is being done to treat PTSD in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) settings where rates of PTSD are likely to be elevated due to mass exposure of the population to traumatic events. This systematic review aims to summarise available evidence on the efficacy of psychological therapies for PTSD in SSA.Methods and analysisA systematic search of the literature will be conducted in four electronic databases: PubMed, PsychInfo, EMBASE and Cochrane Register of Controlled Trials using keywords and synonyms related to ‘PTSD’, ‘psychological therapies’ and ‘SSA’. Studies will be included if they were conducted in SSA and used a randomised controlled trial design. Two researchers will screen the studies for eligibility to be included, and data on intervention types, population, comorbidities, comparison group intervention and PTSD outcomes will be extracted from those included. Risk of bias will be assessed using Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomised trials (version 2). Narrative synthesis of data will be conducted and pooled effect estimates calculated.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval is not required as this is a protocol of a systematic review of available data. Findings will be disseminated to the scientific community through peer-reviewed publications and presentation at conferences.PROSPERO registrationCRD42020181638.

“…El suicidio es la expresión más extrema de condiciones que manifiestan problemas de salud mental como la depresión (Oliffe et al, 2019), la ansiedad (Stanley et al, 2018), el abuso en el consumo de alcohol (Ghanbari et al, 2015) o las adicciones (Carmel et al, 2016;Yuodelis-Flores y Ries, 2015), pero también de circunstancias de vida estresantes como el desempleo, la inestabilidad laboral, la mala calidad del trabajo (Chastang et al, 1998;Min et al, 2015;Nordt et al, 2015), relaciones personales insatisfactorias (Till, Tran y Niederkrotenthaler, 2017), rompimientos sentimentales (Love et al, 2018) o el aislamiento social (Calati et al, 2019). Haber sufrido negligencia, abuso físico (Felitti et al, 2019) o sexual durante la infancia (Pérez-Fuentes et al, 2013;Spokas et al, 2009), estrés postraumático (Bach et al, 2018) o alteraciones del sueño (Bernert et al, 2015;Pigeon, Pinquart y Conner, 2012) también incrementan las ideaciones suicidas, los intentos de suicidio o el suicidio mismo.…”

El suicidio es la manifestación más extrema de necesidades de atención de salud mental y la importancia de reducir su ocurrencia ha sido subrayada por los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible. La pandemia de COVID-19 podría incrementar la mortalidad por suicidio debido a sus efectos negativos sobre las condiciones de vida. Este trabajo analiza la mortalidad por suicidio en hombres jóvenes, adultos y adultos mayores en ocho países de Latinoamérica y el Caribe entre 2005 y 2015. Se estiman tasas de mortalidad anuales para cinco grupos etarios distinguidos por etapas de vida. Los resultados muestran diferencias por países entre los patrones de edad y la trayectoria de esta causa de mortalidad. Uruguay manifiesta los niveles más altos de suicidio junto con Cuba para los adultos mayores. Hallazgos como los que este estudio y otros similares proveen respecto a la tendencia del suicidio en la región de Latinoamérica y el Caribe o los países que la integran, podrían servir de punto de referencia para valorar el impacto de la pandemia de SARS-CoV-2 para esta problemática de la salud mental.

Suicide risk and childhood trauma in individuals diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder

Abstract: Our findings showed a higher prevalence of suicide risk in individuals with PTSD and support the hypothesis that the investigation of childhood traumatic experiences, especially emotional neglect and abuse, may help in the early detection of suicide risk in individuals with PTSD.
