“…Meninos não indígenas utilizaram, ainda, mais frequentemente do que meninas não indígenas armas de fogo, enquanto elas se utilizaram mais do que eles da intoxicação. Esse padrão de utilização de métodos mais letais (enforcamento e arma de fogo) entre meninos foi observado na Argentina 18 , na Áustria 19 e numa revisão que se valeu de dados de 101 países 16 . A utilização do enforcamento como método preferencial por crianças indígenas, observada neste estudo, independentemente do gênero, além de ser uma especificidade étnico-racial, consiste num desafio à prevenção, pois trata-se de um método altamente letal, possível de ser efetuado utilizando materiais disponíveis em casa.…”

Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi descrever as características, a distribuição e as taxas de mortalidade por suicídio entre crianças indígenas no Brasil, comparativamente as não indígenas. Realizou-se um estudo descritivo, compreendendo os anos de 2010 a 2014, utilizando dados dos sistemas nacionais de informação. Foram selecionados os óbitos de pessoas com idades de 10 a 14 anos, cuja causa básica foi classificada como “lesões autoprovocadas voluntariamente”. O enforcamento foi o meio utilizado com mais frequência, tanto entre indígenas como entre não indígenas, embora tenha sido mais frequente no primeiro grupo. Entre indígenas, a ocorrência de suicídio em hospital ou outros estabelecimentos de saúde foi menor do que o observado entre os não indígenas. Aproximadamente, 3/4 dos suicídios entre crianças indígenas ocorreram em 17 municípios. A taxa de mortalidade por suicídio entre crianças indígenas foi de 11,0/100 mil (8,4-14,3), 18,5 (10,9-31,6) vezes maior do que a observada entre as não indígenas, 0,6/100 mil (0,5-0,6), sem diferenças entre meninos e meninas. Este trabalho evidenciou, pela primeira vez, em escala nacional, especificidades das características do suicídio indígena, suas elevadas taxas, bem como identificou ainda áreas prioritárias para intervenções.

“…In 2010, studies more specific to the population under 14 years of age emerge, emphasizing personality traits, factors associated with bullying, psychosocial stress and its psychiatric implications 7,8,[33][34][35][36][37][38]40 . Schools and mental health care began to integrate forms of children suicide prevention, and the challenge of identifying the risk of suicide in this population stands out 8 .…”

“…17 Suicide mortality rates in the region of the Americas from 2001 to 2008 showed an increase among young people in five countries, including Argentina. 18 – 20 In Argentina, rates of suicidal ideation and suicide planning significantly increased among girls but not among boys from 2007 to 2018; this could be in part attributed to a higher decline in parental support among girls. 21 In the 2012 Global School-based Student Health Survey (GSHS) in Argentina, parental support was found to be protective against suicide attempts.…”

Background Factors associated with single suicide attempts (SSA) and multiple suicide attempts (MSA) may differ. Aims The study aimed to assess the factors associated with MSA in adolescents with a history of suicide attempts during the past 12 months in Argentina. Method National cross-sectional data from the Global School-based Student Health Survey in Argentina in 2018 were analysed. Students who reported having a history of suicide attempts in the past 12 months were included in the final sample (n = 8507). Students with MSA were compared with students with an SSA through multiple logistic regression. Results In a subsample of adolescents attending school (mean age 14.8 years, s.d. = 1.3), 59.4% had an SSA and 40.6% had MSA in the past 12 months. In the final adjusted logistic regression model, compared with participants with SSA, both male and female students with MSA more frequently had no close friends, reported feeling more lonely and had more anxiety-induced sleep disturbances. Furthermore, among female participants, having been physically attacked, having participated in physical fights, low parental support, current tobacco use and lifetime amphetamine use were associated with MSA. Among male students, multiple sexual partners were associated with MSA. Furthermore, among both boys and girls, compared with participants without psychosocial distress, participants with one, two, three or more psychosocial distress factors had higher odds of MSA. Compared with students with one or two social or environmental risk factors, students with seven or eight social or environmental risk factors had higher odds of MSA; compared with students who had zero or one health risk behaviours, students with six or more health risk behaviours had higher odds of MSA. Conclusions Psychosocial distress (anxiety-induced sleep disturbance, having no close friends and loneliness) increased the odds of MSA among both sexes. The odds of MSA were increased by interpersonal violence, low parental support and substance use among girls, and by having multiple sexual partners among boys. This suggests the potential relevance of these variables in identifying multiple suicide attempters among adolescents attending school in Argentina.
