Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of level of serotonin 2A receptor binding by serotonin receptor 2A genetic variation in postmortem brain samples from subjects who did or did not commit suicide.

TL;DR: The results confirm previous reports of greater 5-HTR2A binding in subjects who committed suicide and provide preliminary evidence suggesting that the number of5-H TR2A receptors is genetically mediated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is Violent Method of Suicide a Behavioral Marker of Lifetime Aggression

TL;DR: The authors found that lifetime aggression and the interaction between impulsivity and aggressive behavior remained associated with violent method, and support the use of violent method of suicide as a behavioral marker of a higher level of lifetime impulsive-aggressive behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Familial aggregation of suicidal behavior: a family study of male suicide completers from the general population.

TL;DR: Suicide has a familial component independent of psychopathology that may be mediated by a combination of factors, including more severe suicidal ideation and aggressive behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Familial aggregation of suicide explained by cluster B traits: a three-group family study of suicide controlling for major depressive disorder.

TL;DR: Familial transmission of suicide and major depression, while partially overlapping, are distinct and cluster B traits and impulsive-aggressive behavior represent intermediate phenotypes of suicide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gender and risk factors for suicide: evidence for heterogeneity in predisposing mechanisms in a psychological autopsy study.

TL;DR: Despite a lower prevalence among females, high levels of impulsivity and alcohol abuse appear to be valid risk factors for both sexes.
