Number of suicides and suicide rates, by sex and age, in England and Wales. Information on conclusion type is provided, along with the proportion of suicides by method and the median registration delay.

BackgroundIn Europe, men have lower rates of attempted suicide compared to women and at the same time a higher rate of completed suicides, indicating major gender differences in lethality of suicidal behaviour. The aim of this study was to analyse the extent to which these gender differences in lethality can be explained by factors such as choice of more lethal methods or lethality differences within the same suicide method or age. In addition, we explored gender differences in the intentionality of suicide attempts.Methods and FindingsMethods. Design: Epidemiological study using a combination of self-report and official data. Setting: Mental health care services in four European countries: Germany, Hungary, Ireland, and Portugal. Data basis: Completed suicides derived from official statistics for each country (767 acts, 74.4% male) and assessed suicide attempts excluding habitual intentional self-harm (8,175 acts, 43.2% male).Main Outcome Measures and Data Analysis. We collected data on suicidal acts in eight regions of four European countries participating in the EU-funded “OSPI-Europe”-project (www.ospi-europe.com). We calculated method-specific lethality using the number of completed suicides per method * 100 / (number of completed suicides per method + number of attempted suicides per method). We tested gender differences in the distribution of suicidal acts for significance by using the χ2-test for two-by-two tables. We assessed the effect sizes with phi coefficients (φ). We identified predictors of lethality with a binary logistic regression analysis. Poisson regression analysis examined the contribution of choice of methods and method-specific lethality to gender differences in the lethality of suicidal acts.Findings Main ResultsSuicidal acts (fatal and non-fatal) were 3.4 times more lethal in men than in women (lethality 13.91% (regarding 4106 suicidal acts) versus 4.05% (regarding 4836 suicidal acts)), the difference being significant for the methods hanging, jumping, moving objects, sharp objects and poisoning by substances other than drugs. Median age at time of suicidal behaviour (35–44 years) did not differ between males and females. The overall gender difference in lethality of suicidal behaviour was explained by males choosing more lethal suicide methods (odds ratio (OR) = 2.03; 95% CI = 1.65 to 2.50; p < 0.000001) and additionally, but to a lesser degree, by a higher lethality of suicidal acts for males even within the same method (OR = 1.64; 95% CI = 1.32 to 2.02; p = 0.000005). Results of a regression analysis revealed neither age nor country differences were significant predictors for gender differences in the lethality of suicidal acts. The proportion of serious suicide attempts among all non-fatal suicidal acts with known intentionality (NFSAi) was significantly higher in men (57.1%; 1,207 of 2,115 NFSAi) than in women (48.6%; 1,508 of 3,100 NFSAi) (χ2 = 35.74; p < 0.000001).Main limitations of the studyDue to restrictive data security regulations to ensure anonymity in Ireland, specific ages could not be provided because of the relatively low absolute numbers of suicide in the Irish intervention and control region. Therefore, analyses of the interaction between gender and age could only be conducted for three of the four countries. Attempted suicides were assessed for patients presenting to emergency departments or treated in hospitals. An unknown rate of attempted suicides remained undetected. This may have caused an overestimation of the lethality of certain methods. Moreover, the detection of attempted suicides and the registration of completed suicides might have differed across the four countries. Some suicides might be hidden and misclassified as undetermined deaths.ConclusionsMen more often used highly lethal methods in suicidal behaviour, but there was also a higher method-specific lethality which together explained the large gender differences in the lethality of suicidal acts. Gender differences in the lethality of suicidal acts were fairly consistent across all four European countries examined. Males and females did not differ in age at time of suicidal behaviour. Suicide attempts by males were rated as being more serious independent of the method used, with the exceptions of attempted hanging, suggesting gender differences in intentionality associated with suicidal behaviour. These findings contribute to understanding of the spectrum of reasons for gender differences in the lethality of suicidal behaviour and should inform the development of gender specific strategies for suicide prevention.

This dataset shows the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) rate for suicide per 100,000 for Regular Force males. As the number of events was less than 20 in most years, rates were not calculated annually as these would not have been statistically reliable. Regular Force female rates were not calculated because female suicides were uncommon. This dataset is taken from the yearly Report on Suicide Mortality in the Canadian Armed Forces released on the Canada.ca platform at the homepage link provided down below.

This group of datasets describe the suicides in Scotland for the period 1982-2009. There are 4 separate datasets: All Suicides/Male Suicides/Female Suicides/All Suicide Rate (expressed per 100,000 people). The data is broken down into Local Authority Areas making it easier to investigate any spatial disparity in the suicide figures. A couple of points are worth noting are that it is unclear if the suicide data shows all suicides or just those of Adults. A recent Scottish Government report(http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2007/03/01145422/20) used deaths of people over 15 years old. Differences in the rates between this data and the results presented in the Scottish Government report may also be due to different population datasets being used. Suicide data sources form the Scottish Public Health Observatory (http://www.scotpho.org.uk/home/Healthwell-beinganddisease/suicide/suicide_data/suicide_la.asp) and the population data used to calculate the rates was sourced from ShareGeo Open (http://hdl.handle.net/10672/95) which uses mid-year estimates downloaded from Nomis (www.nomisweb.co.uk/. Datasets were joined to Local Authority (district, unitary authority and borough) boundaries downloaded from Ordnance Survey OpenData Boundary Line dataset. All spatial analysis was carried out in ArcGIS. GIS vector data. This dataset was first accessioned in the EDINA ShareGeo Open repository on 2011-01-13 and migrated to Edinburgh DataShare on 2017-02-21.

ObjectiveThe number of suicides in Japan has remained high for many years. To effectively resolve this problem, firm understanding of the statistical data is required. Using a large quantity of wide-ranging data on Japanese citizens, the purpose of this study was to analyze the geographical clustering properties of suicides and how suicide rates have evolved over time, and to observe detailed patterns and trends in a variety of geographic regions.MethodsUsing adjacency data from 2008, the spatial and temporal/spatial clustering structure of geographic statistics on suicides were clarified. Echelon scans were performed to identify regions with the highest-likelihood ratio of suicide as the most likely suicide clusters.ResultsIn contrast to results obtained using temporal/spatial analysis, the results of a period-by-period breakdown of evolving suicide rates demonstrated that suicides among men increased particularly rapidly during 1988–1992, 1993–1997, and 1998–2002 in certain cluster regions located near major metropolitan areas. For women, results identified cluster regions near major metropolitan areas in 1993–1997, 1998–2002, and 2003–2007.ConclusionsFor both men and women, the cluster regions identified are located primarily near major metropolitan areas, such as greater Tokyo and Osaka.

ABSTRACT Objectives: Analyze the suicide mortality time trends among adolescents in Brazil from 2000 to 2015. Methods: Data were collected from the Brazilian Mortality Database and from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics. Study variables were sex, year and underlying cause of death. The study included deaths from Intentional Self-Harm, X60-X84 – according to the 10th Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10), of adolescents aged 10 to 19. The simple linear regression technique was used and results were considered statistically significant when p ≤ 5%. Results: From 2000 to 2015, there were 11,947 deaths due to suicide of adolescents in Brazil and 67% of these occurred in male adolescents, which corresponds to a 2,06:1 male-female ratio. There was a statistically significant increase in adolescent suicide mortality in Brazil (p = 0.016), which increased from 1.71 per 100,000 inhabitants in 2000 to 2.51 in 2015, a raise of 47%. The increase occurred in behalf of the increment in suicides of male adolescents (p = 0.001) specifically in the North (p < 0.001) and Northeast (p < 0.001) of Brazil. In regard to the female group, there was a downtrend of mortality by suicide in the Center West region (p = 0.039), but when it comes to Brazil as a whole, there was a stabilization behavior of mortality by suicide. Conclusions: These results indicate an increase in the suicide rate of adolescents in Brazil, particularly in the male population. The improvement of suicide prevention strategies in Brazil is imperative.

Over *** thousand deaths due to suicides were recorded in India in 2022. Furthermore, majority of suicides were reported in the state of Tamil Nadu, followed by Rajasthan. The number of suicides that year had increased from the previous year. Some of the causes for suicides in the country were due to professional problems, abuse, violence, family problems, financial loss, sense of isolation and mental disorders. Depressive disorders and suicide As of 2015, over ****** million people worldwide suffered from some kind of depressive disorder. Furthermore, over ** percent of the total population in India suffer from different forms of mental disorders as of 2017. There exists a positive correlation between the number of suicide mortality rates and people with select mental disorders as opposed to those without. Risk factors for mental disorders Every ******* person in India suffers from some form of mental disorder. Today, depressive disorders are regarded as the leading contributor not only to disease burden and morbidity worldwide, but even suicide if not addressed. In 2022, the leading cause for suicide deaths in India was due to family problems. The second leading cause was due to illness. Some of the risk factors, relative to developing mental disorders including depressive and anxiety disorders, include bullying victimization, poverty, unemployment, childhood sexual abuse and intimate partner violence.

ABSTRACT Objective To describe the epidemiological profile and analyze the time trend of suicide mortality among adolescents (10-19 years old) from the Brazilian Northeast, from 2001 to 2015. Methods This is an observational study, which took place in the Northeast region, Brazil. The study period was from 2001 to 2015. Deaths from intentional self-harm (X60 to X84). exogenous poisoning of undetermined intent (Y10 to Y19) and intentional self-harm (Y87.0) were considered, according to the 10th Review of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10), for adolescents aged 10 to 19 years. The variables analyzed were: sex, age group, race / color, specific ICD, state of residence and suicide mortality rate/100,000 inhabitants. Results There were 3,194 deaths due to suicide in the age group studied, with a male predominance (62.1%; n = 1,984), age group 15 to 19 years (84.8%; n = 2,707), race/brown color (65.4%; n = 2,090); between 4 and 7 years of schooling (31.7%; n = 1,011) and at CID X70 (47.8%; n = 1,528). The time trend of mortality was increasing from 2001 to 2015 (APC: 2.4%; p < 0.01), with higher rates in males. There was an increasing trend in the suicide rate, among men, throughout the period (AAPC: 2.9%; p < 0.01). In women, a decreasing trend was identified as of 2004 (APC: -2.2%; p < 0.01). Conclusion The epidemiological profile was characterized by male gender, age group 15-19 years, color/brown race and average schooling. The trend showed a growth pattern in males and a decline in females. It is recommended that public policies are aimed at the adolescent population.

BackgroundKetamine was developed as an anesthetic. Esketamine is the isolated S-enantiomer of racemic ketamine. They provide new avenues for the treatment of depression, especially treatment-resistant depression. Considering differences in the pharmacokinetics and hormonal status of ketamine in patients of different genders, sex-based differences in esketamine adverse drug events (ADE) may also be observed. This study presents data mining and safety analysis of adverse events of ketamine and esketamine between genders, promoting the individualization of clinical practice.MethodsAdverse drug reactions to ketamine and esketamine reported between the first quarter of 2004 and the second quarter of 2023 in the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) were extracted. Thereafter, the reporting odds ratio (ROR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated.ResultsA total of 2907 female reports and 1634 male reports on esketamine were included in the analysis. ROR mining showed that completed suicide, decreased therapeutic product effects, urinary retention, and hypertension were common in men. Additionally, 552 female and 653 male ketamine reports were recorded. ROR mining revealed that toxicity to various agents, bradycardia, cystitis and agitation, were more likely to occur in men, whereas women were more likely to develop suicidal ideation, increased transaminase levels, sclerosing cholangitis, and sterile pyuria.ConclusionThe adverse events of esketamine and ketamine differ across genders, which should be considered in clinical practice to provide individualized treatment.
