The rates and associated basic demographic features of attempted and completed suicides in a catchment area in Turkey were investigated as part of the WHO/Euro Multicentre Study of Suicidal Behaviour.
All hospitals in the catchment area were screened in order to identify attempted suicides. Statistics for completed suicides were obtained from the State Institute of Statistics (SIS).
The rates of attempted and completed suicides per 100,000 inhabitants over 15 years of age were 31.9 for males and 85.6 for females, and 9.9 for males and 5.6 for females, respectively. The majority of attempted suicides were in the 15-24-year-old age group, as is the case in all other European countries. The majority of completed suicides were also in the 15-24-year-old age group, although in other European centers most completed suicides occur in the 40+ age group. The most frequent methods were overdose for attempted suicide and hanging for completed suicide. The rates of both attempted and completed suicides were lower than those of other participating centers in Europe.
Male sex is a risk factor for completed suicide and female sex is a risk factor for attempted suicide, while an age of 15-24 years may be a risk factor for both groups.
作为世界卫生组织/欧洲自杀行为多中心研究的一部分，对土耳其一个集水区内自杀未遂和自杀既遂的发生率及相关基本人口统计学特征进行了调查。
对集水区内的所有医院进行筛查，以确定自杀未遂情况。自杀既遂的统计数据来自国家统计局（SIS）。
15岁及以上每10万居民中自杀未遂率男性为31.9，女性为85.6；自杀既遂率男性为9.9，女性为5.6。与所有其他欧洲国家一样，大多数自杀未遂者为15 - 24岁年龄组。大多数自杀既遂者也为15 - 24岁年龄组，不过在其他欧洲地区，大多数自杀既遂发生在40岁及以上年龄组。最常见的自杀未遂方式是过量服药，自杀既遂方式是上吊。自杀未遂和自杀既遂的发生率均低于欧洲其他参与研究的中心。
男性是自杀既遂的一个风险因素，女性是自杀未遂的一个风险因素，而15 - 24岁年龄可能是两组的一个风险因素。
