A high suicide mortality risk has been documented among a population-based cohort of 27 123 cancer patients resident in central Italy where the general suicide rate is low. Forty-one suicides were observed (SMR = 2.36) which were only 0.2% of all deaths. However, the highest risk (SMR = 27.7) during the first 6 months after diagnosis, represents a greater contrast with the general population than has been observed in other studies.
在意大利中部以人群为基础的27123名癌症患者队列中,已记录到较高的自杀死亡率风险,而该地区总体自杀率较低。观察到41例自杀事件(标准化死亡比=2.36),仅占所有死亡人数的0.2%。然而,诊断后前6个月的最高风险(标准化死亡比=27.7)与普通人群相比差异更大,这一差异大于其他研究中所观察到的情况。
