Abstract

Background Attempting suicide is considered one of the important indicators of the mental health of individuals in society. One of the important issues in suicide is psychiatric disorders and related factors. Given that no comprehensive study was conducted in Yazd province, this study aimed to assess psychiatric disorders in patients with suicide attempts. Methods This analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on 344 patients with suicide attempts at Shahid Beheshti Hospital from March 2021 to March 2022. The type of psychiatric illness was diagnosed based on the clinical interview and DSM-5 diagnostic criteria. All information was extracted from medical records entered into SPSS version 22 and analyzed. P < 0.05 was assumed significant. Results The average age of the patients was 27.09 ± 11.78 years. Among them, 145 were men (42.2%) and 199 were women (57.8%). The most common psychiatric disorder was Major depressive disorder (MDD) (46.5%). Moreover, the lowest frequency of psychiatric disorders was schizophrenia (1.2%). There was a significant relation between psychiatric disorders and variables, including age, number of suicides, gender, and suicide method (P < 0.05). A significant relation was seen between the severity of diseases and gender (P < 0.05). Conclusion Among the various types of psychiatric disorders, MDD was more prevalent in individuals who commit suicide. Hence, it was essential to focus more attention on this particular group of patients. Additionally, the use of medication was the most common method of suicide. It should also be noted that the severity of suicide was higher in men.  
调查自杀未遂患者的精神障碍
背景 自杀未遂被认为是社会中个人心理健康的重要指标之一。自杀的重要问题之一是精神障碍和相关因素。鉴于亚兹德省没有开展过全面的研究,本研究旨在评估自杀未遂患者的精神障碍。方法 本分析性横断面研究于 2021 年 3 月至 2022 年 3 月期间在沙希德-贝赫什提医院对 344 名自杀未遂患者进行了调查。根据临床访谈和 DSM-5 诊断标准对精神病类型进行诊断。所有信息均从病历中提取,并输入 SPSS 22 版进行分析。P<0.05为差异显著。结果 患者的平均年龄为(27.09±11.78)岁。其中男性 145 人(42.2%),女性 199 人(57.8%)。最常见的精神疾病是重度抑郁症(MDD)(46.5%)。此外,发病率最低的精神疾病是精神分裂症(1.2%)。精神障碍与年龄、自杀次数、性别和自杀方式等变量之间存在明显关系(P < 0.05)。疾病的严重程度与性别也有明显关系(P < 0.05)。结论 在各类精神疾病中,多发性抑郁症在自杀者中的发病率较高。因此,有必要对这一特殊患者群体给予更多关注。此外,使用药物自杀是最常见的自杀方式。还应注意的是,男性自杀的严重程度更高。
