自杀是一个公共卫生问题,也是全世界青少年死亡的主要原因,特别是在发展中国家。
■本研究是一项系统综述,旨在研究空间,地理,以及与青少年自杀有关的人口统计学因素。
■在这篇系统综述中,两名研究人员检查了PsycINFO,WebofScience,Scopus,和PubMed数据库在12月7日,2022年,从出版开始到2022年没有时间限制,以确定青少年和青年自杀的空间和地理分析的主要研究。一旦发现并删除了重复的研究,我们检查了研究的标题和摘要,并删除了不相关的研究.最后,根据纳入标准对22项研究进行了综述。
■我们的研究结果表明,男性自杀率普遍较高,农村和人口稠密地区的居民,沿海和山区,当地人,15-29岁年龄组,社会分裂的弱势群体,失业,离婚或孤独的人,那些生活在单亲家庭的人,有心理健康问题的人,以及那些受教育程度低的人。
■与空间变量相比,更有力的证据支持地理和人口统计学变量对青年和青少年自杀率的影响。这些发现表明,当卫生系统为自杀预防分配资源时,政策制定者会考虑空间和人口因素。国家政策制定者将人口和地理变量纳入卫生服务计划。

UNASSIGNED: Suicide is a public health issue and a main cause of mortality among adolescents and the youth worldwide, particularly in developing countries.
UNASSIGNED: The present research is a systematic
review aiming to investigate the spatial, geographical, and demographic factors related to suicide among adolescents and the youth.
UNASSIGNED: In this systematic
review, two researchers examined PsycINFO, Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed databases on December 7th, 2022 with no time limits from the beginning of publication until 2022 to identify the primary studies on spatial and geographic analysis on adolescent and youth suicides. Once duplicate studies were identified and removed, the titles and abstracts of studies were examined and irrelevant studies were also removed. Finally, 22 studies were reviewed based on the inclusion criteria.
UNASSIGNED: Our findings show that suicide rates are generally higher among men, residents of rural and less densely populated regions, coastal and mountainous regions, natives, 15-29 age group, less privileged populations with social fragmentation, unemployed, divorced or lonely people, those who live in single parent families, people with mental health issues, and those with low levels of education.
UNASSIGNED: Stronger evidence supports the effects of geographic and demographic variables on youth and adolescent suicide rates as compared with spatial variables. These findings suggest that policy makers take spatial and demographic factors into consideration when health systems allocate resources for suicide prevention, and that national policymakers integrate demographic and geographic variables into health service programs.
