| description | Background. Two previous studies from the United Kingdom have suggested that rates of attempted
suicide in Asian women are higher than in the native population. Method. Over a 1-year period we identified 434 patients presenting from one catchment area to four
hospitals, after episodes of self-harm. These patients were assessed using the GHQ, CIS-R, and Life
Events Inventory, and by collecting details of the attempt itself. Results. Asian women had the highest overall rates ; 1·6 times those in White women and 2·5 times
the rate among Asian men. The rates were lowest among older women. Among younger Asian
women (less than 30 years) the rates were 2·5 times those of White women and seven times those
of Asian men. The rates among black groups were lower than expected. Self-poisoning was the
commonest method of self-harm. Conclusions. Younger Asian women are vulnerable to increased rates of attempted self-harm and
deserve to be studied further. |
