Introduction: Stroke should be considered as a risk factor for suicide.
A comprehensive strategy for screening and treating stroke survivors’ depression and suicidal ideation should be developed to reduce the risk of suicide in stroke survivors.
Poor mental health and depression are known sequelae of stroke; however, the association between stroke and subsequent suicide risk is unclear.
Recently, a research article was published in Stroke, an authoritative journal in the field of cardiovascular disease.
Researchers systematically searched the MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO and Google Scholar databases using keywords and database-specific keywords.
Researchers independently reviewed and selected observational studies that reported suicide attempts or suicide deaths among stroke survivors and controls.
The control group consisted of individuals with no history of stroke or the general population.
The researchers used the Newcastle Ottawa Scale to assess the quality of the study, and used a random effects meta-analysis to calculate the combined adjusted risk ratio (RR) of suicide for stroke survivors, and calculated the combined adjusted risk of suicide attempt and suicide death separately.
ratio.
The researchers screened 4093 articles and finally included 23 studies of comparable quality, accumulating more than 2 million stroke survivors, including 5563 suicide attempts or suicide deaths.
Compared with the non-stroke group, the adjusted RR of suicide among stroke survivors was 1.
73 (95% CI 1.
53-1.
96, I2=93%), and the adjusted risk of suicide attempt was significantly higher (RR 2.

56]) than suicide.
Death (RR 1.

03).
The longer follow-up time in the cohort study was associated with a lower risk of suicide (for each additional year, the RR was 0.
97 [0.
95-0.
99]).
Thus, stroke should be regarded as a risk factor for suicide.
A comprehensive strategy for screening and treating stroke survivors’ depression and suicidal ideation should be developed to reduce the risk of suicide in stroke survivors.
