Suicide signs have been identified by expert consensus and are relied on by service providers, community helpers' and family members to identify suicidal men. Whether signs that are reported in suicide literature accurately describe male presentations of suicidality is unclear. A systematic review of the literature was conducted to identify male-specific signs of current suicidality and identify gaps in the literature for future research. Searches through Medline, CINAHL, PsychInfo and the Behavioral Sciences Collection, guided by the PRISMA-P statement, identified 12 studies that met the study eligibility criteria. Although the results generally reflected suicide signs identified by expert consensus, there is little research that has examined male-specific signs of the current suicidal state. This review highlights the need for scientific research to clarify male presentation of suicidality. Implications for future research to improve the prompt identification of suicidal men are discussed.
自杀迹象已通过专家共识确定，服务提供者、社区帮助者和家庭成员依靠这些迹象来识别有自杀倾向的男性。目前尚不清楚自杀文献中报道的迹象是否准确描述了男性自杀倾向的表现。我们进行了一项系统的文献综述，以确定当前自杀倾向的男性特定迹象，并找出文献中有待未来研究填补的空白。根据PRISMA-P声明的指导，通过检索Medline、CINAHL、PsychInfo和行为科学数据库，确定了12项符合研究纳入标准的研究。尽管结果总体上反映了专家共识所确定的自杀迹象，但很少有研究探讨当前自杀状态下男性特定的迹象。本综述强调了开展科学研究以阐明男性自杀倾向表现的必要性。同时还讨论了未来研究对改善及时识别有自杀倾向男性的意义。
