This paper analyzes the variation of suicide by day of the week in alcohol dependence, with public holidays taken into consideration. From 1949 through 1969, 1,312 patients with alcohol dependence were admitted to the Department of Psychiatry in Lund. By 1997, a total of 102 (99 men) alcoholic patients had taken their own life. Suicide victims with severe depression and other diagnoses were compared. There was a suicide peak on the first two days after weekends and holidays in patients with alcohol dependence (p < .05). Alcohol withdrawal is proposed as a contributor to the suicide peak.
本文分析了酒精依赖患者自杀在一周内各天的变化情况,并考虑了公共假日因素。1949年至1969年期间,1312名酒精依赖患者入住隆德市精神病科。截至1997年,共有102名(99名男性)酒精性患者自杀。对伴有严重抑郁症和其他诊断的自杀受害者进行了比较。酒精依赖患者在周末和节假日后的头两天出现自杀高峰(p < 0.05)。酒精戒断被认为是导致自杀高峰的一个因素。
