Completed Suicide After a Suicide Attempt: A 37-Year Follow-Up Study
TL;DR: A history of a suicide attempt by self-poisoning indicates suicide risk over the entire adult lifetime, and suicides continued to accumulate almost four decades after the index suicide attempt.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term risk factors for suicide mortality after attempted suicide--findings of a 14-year follow-up study.
TL;DR: The essential risk factors for suicide were being male and having previous suicide attempts, and history of earlier psychiatric treatment, presence of somatic disease and genuine intent to die in the index suicide attempt suggest that the long-term risk has remained high for over a decade.
