This study was aimed at examining the relationship between suicidal attempts, polydrug use, and depression in adolescents. A sample of 691 adolescents and their parents were interviewed. Subjects who met the criteria for depression and those who used alcohol were significantly more likely to be suicidal attempters (OR = 6.8, p < 0.001; OR = 7.5, p < 0.001). Polydrug users were significantly more likely to attempt suicide (OR = 8.8, p = 0.032). Adolescents with mothers who met the criteria for depression were more likely to report suicide attempts (OR = 2.4, p = 0.069). Health professionals need to screen for polydrug use and depression to prevent future suicidal behaviors.
本研究旨在探讨青少年自杀企图、多药使用和抑郁之间的关系。对 691 名青少年及其父母进行了访谈。符合抑郁标准且使用酒精的受试者更有可能尝试自杀（OR=6.8，p<0.001；OR=7.5，p<0.001）。多药使用者更有可能尝试自杀（OR=8.8，p=0.032）。母亲符合抑郁标准的青少年更有可能报告自杀企图（OR=2.4，p=0.069）。卫生专业人员需要筛查多药使用和抑郁，以预防未来的自杀行为。
