“…In Brazil, a study conducted with 142 students from the state of Piauí identified 22% of university students with suicidal ideation (13) . Another study conducted with 271 students from a public institution in Pernambuco found that 13.6% had a risk of suicide (18) . Researches carried out in other countries with nursing students also showed lower rates than those found in this study.…”

Objectives: to identify the risk and degree of risk of suicide in nursing students of a public institution in the countryside of Pernambuco, Brazil. Methods: this was a cross-sectional, quantitative research conducted with 150 students. For data collection, a sociodemographic questionnaire and the instrument, M.I.N.I. - Brazilian version 5.0.0 - Module C - Risk of suicide were used. Statistical analyses were performed with IBM(® )SPSS(®), version 23. Results: 53.3% of nursing students had a risk of suicide, of which 20.7% had a high risk. Moreover, 22.67% reported previous suicide attempt. It is noteworthy that students without a partner have a higher risk of suicide (56.8%) than those with a partner (29.4%). Conclusions: it is perceived the need to develop programs that identify students at risk of suicide in higher education institutions, in order to raise awareness of the problem and implement policies to promote mental health in the academia.

“…De um modo particular, de acordo com Nascimento et al (2019), que realizou um estudo transversal com amostra de restritivas, tudo voltado para obtenção de um corpo ideal que é empregado por meio das mídias sociais. Então, a partir desses fatos, a crescente prática do suicídio relacionado com a insatisfação corporal, nos últimos anos, levou à inclusão dos transtornos alimentares nas patologias neuropsiquiátricas.…”

Objetivo: Analisar a relação existente entre a depressão como fator de risco para o suicídio. Metodologia: Foi adotado o método de Revisão Sistemática da Literatura, cuja questão norteadora foi “Como a depressão influencia diretamente para o aumento das taxas de suicídio”? A temática da pesquisa foi buscada nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO) e na U. S. National Library of Medicine (PUBMED), da implantação dos Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS): (“suicide” AND “depression”). Os critérios de inclusão utilizados foram: presença dos DeCS, idioma português ou espanhol, texto completo disponível, estudos em humanos e estudos transversais. Após a aplicação dos filtros, apenas sete artigos se encaixaram nos critérios de elegibilidade. Resultados: Foi evidenciado através dos autores que as taxas da prática suicida relacionados à depressão têm aumentado de forma significativa, configurando-se em uma das principais causas de morte e problemas de saúde pública enfrentados na atualidade. Conclusão: Através desse estudo, foi revelado que as taxas de práticas suicidas relacionados a transtornos depressivos são notoriamente elevadas e que é necessário a existência de ferramentas científicas e econômicas para haver a prevenção dos casos de suicídios na esfera global.

“…Other studies concentrate on the relationships between depressive symptoms and suicide. Depressive symptoms have been proven to be a promoting or risk factor for suicidal ideation, intent, and attempt (behaviour) (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16). Regarding the risk or hazard ratio, epidemiological research of over one hundred thousand samples revealed a high hazard ratio of suicide death in terms of mild (2.18), moderate (2.13), severe (3.33) and extremely heavy (3.67) depressive symptoms (17).…”

Background: Suicidal ideation is thought to be of high risk for attempts and behaviours. Researches have suggested that depressive symptoms and impulsiveness can affect suicidal ideation, attempts and behaviours independently. But how they work together in influencing suicidal ideation remains unclear. This study is aiming to investigate the reciprocal associations among impulsiveness, depressive symptoms, and suicidal ideation and to confirm the mediating effect of depressive symptoms on impulsiveness and suicidal ideation through cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses.Methods: The Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Barratt Impulsiveness Scale 11th version (BIS-11) and Self-rating Idea of Suicide Scale (SIOSS) were applied, as well as a list of demographic information. Multilinear regression and parallel process latent growth curve models were applied to conduct cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses, respectively.Results: (1) Participants with suicidal ideation scored higher in depressive symptoms and impulsiveness than those without suicidal ideation (P<10-5). (2) The three variables and the three dimensions of impulsiveness were significantly reciprocally correlated with each other (P<0.01). (3) For the impulsiveness total score, non-planning, motor and attention, the multilinear regression models fit well (adjusted R2>0.3, SRMR<0.05). Their indirect effects on suicidal ideation through depressive symptoms were all statistically significant (BIS-SDS-SIOSS, indirect effect coefficient=0.557, P<0.001; non-planning-SDS-SIOSS, indirect effect coefficient=0.480, P<0.001; motor-SDS-SIOSS, indirect effect coefficient=0.486, P<0.001; attention-SDS-SIOSS, indirect effect coefficient=0.504, P<0.001). (4) Four parallel process latent growth curve models fit well (RMSEA<0.05). The total indirect effect of impulsiveness on the growth rate of suicidal ideation through the initial level and growth rate of depressive symptoms was significant (indirect effect coefficient=-0.450, P=0.001). The indirect effects of non-planning and attention impulsiveness were -0.336 (P=0.005) and -0.314 (P=0.002), respectively. However, the indirect effect of motor function on the growth rate of suicidal ideation was not significant (coefficient=-0.379, P=0.067).Conclusions: This study mainly revealed that individuals with impulsive personalities might be at higher risk for and experience more rapid changes in suicidal ideation. The effects were indirect and mediated by depressive symptoms. This implies that impulsive personality with depressive symptoms is critical for suicide prevention and needs more attention.
