Suicide in Schizophrenics, Manics, Depressives, and Surgical Controls: A Comparison With General Population Suicide Mortality
Open accessAbstract
This article reports suicide risk among 200 schizophrenic, 100 manic, and 225 depressive patients, and 160 surgical controls. The suicide experience of the study subjects was compared to that of the population of the state of Iowa, the geographical area and population from which the subjects were selected. The suicide experience of the surgical controls was not significantly different from that of the general population. On the other hand, increased risk of suicide was found in all psychiatric groups except female schizophrenics. Suicide appeared pronounced particularly in male patients with affective disorders during the first decade of the follow-up period.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
