abstract="OBJECTIVES: The current study aimed to compare suicide-related variables as a function of 1) family history of suicidal behavior and 2) child sexual abuse among patients hospitalized for a suicide attempt or active suicidal ideation. Family history of suicidal behavior and child sexual abuse were examined independently and in combination as a diathesis for a high-risk suicidal phenotype. <br><br>METHOD: A multicenter cross-sectional study was designed to compare data obtained from 292 patients hospitalized for suicidal behavior. Demographic and clinical variables were compared among group 1 (patients who reported both family history of suicidal behavior and child sexual abuse), group 2 (patients who reported only family history of suicidal behavior), group 3 (patients who reported only child sexual abuse) and group 4 (patients who did not report family history of suicidal behavior or childhood sexual abuse). A multinomial logistic regression was used to examine suicide-related variables associated with each group and to compare differences between groups. <br><br>RESULTS: Group 1 and 3 endorsed a higher number of previous suicide attempts and were more likely to be younger at the first suicide attempt as compared to group 4. Group differences remained after adjustment in a multinomial regression model. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: The current findings suggest that child sexual abuse may be more strongly related to suicide risk among high risk patients as compared to family history of suicidal behavior.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
