Suicide attempts and associated factors in older adults with schizophrenia
Open accessAbstract
Background Although there have been numerous studies of suicidality in younger populations with schizophrenia, there have been no studies focused on community-dwelling older adults with schizophrenia. This study provides data on the prevalence of suicidality and factors associated with previous suicide attempts among a mixed racial sample of older persons with schizophrenia living in New York City.Methods The schizophrenia group consisted of 198 persons aged >or=55 years who developed schizophrenia before age 45. A community comparison group (n=113) was recruited using randomly selected block groups. Fifteen predictor variables of lifetime suicide attempts based on a risk model of suicide in schizophrenia were identified.Results Persons in the schizophrenia group had a significantly higher prevalence of current and lifetime "suicidality" (i.e., wants to be dead, suicidal thoughts, or suicide attempts) when compared to the community group (current: 10% versus 2%; lifetime: 56% versus 7%) as well as past suicidal attempts (30% versus 4%). Within the schizophrenia group, in logistic regression analysis, 2 variables were significantly associated with lifetime suicidal attempts: current syndromal depression and higher scores on the Traumatic and Victimization Scale.Conclusions The data confirmed that in later life, persons with schizophrenia continue to have a higher prevalence of suicidality than their age peers in the community. Our findings underscore the importance of monitoring for suicidality in this age group. The relative paucity of risk factors means that practitioners can more easily focus their therapeutic efforts on at-risk individuals.

The literature suggests that depressive symptoms, hopelessness, previous attempts, low quality of life, and history of trauma are likely risk factors for suicidal behavior in older patients with schizophrenia.

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.
