The Iowa Record-Linkage Study: I. Suicides and Accidental Deaths Among Psychiatric Patients
Abstract
In a prospective investigation of 5,412 formerly hospitalized psychiatric patients, 68 committed suicide and 38 died from accidental causes. Both figures are significantly in excess of expectations based on a relevant control population. Those at significant risk included men and women of all ages, except those older than 69 years. Comparison of standardized mortality ratios suggests relatively greater risk for women and young persons. Risk for suicide was significant for patients of both sexes with acute schizophrenia, schizophrenia, affective disorders, and alcohol and other drug abuse, for men with neuroses, and for women with depressive neuroses. Risk for accidental death was greatest for those aged from 30 to 49 years and for those with personality disorders.

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.
