The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for suicide attempts (SA) in methamphetamine (MA)-dependent patients. MA-dependent adults (N = 526) who participated in the Methamphetamine Treatment Project were interviewed before and three years after treatment. Baseline psychiatric, medical, demographic, and substance use characteristics were assessed using the Addiction Severity Index and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Lifetime history of SA was assessed at follow-up. Risk factors for SA included gender, intravenous MA use, BDI > 20 at baseline, and clinically significant psychiatric history. Psychiatric characteristics of MA users are strongly associated with SA, warranting careful assessment of psychiatric history.
本研究的目的是确定甲基苯丙胺（MA）依赖患者自杀未遂（SA）的风险因素。参与甲基苯丙胺治疗项目的MA依赖成年人（N = 526）在治疗前和治疗三年后接受了访谈。使用成瘾严重程度指数和贝克抑郁量表（BDI）评估基线时的精神、医学、人口统计学和物质使用特征。随访时评估SA的终生史。SA的风险因素包括性别、静脉注射MA、基线时BDI>20以及具有临床意义的精神病史。MA使用者的精神特征与SA密切相关，因此有必要仔细评估精神病史。
