NCT02001649

Brief Summary

Suicidal behaviors is known to aggregate in families. The purpose of this study is to evaluate association between common polymorphisms in genes important for neurobiological pathways linked to suicidal behaviors and suicide attempt among adolescents patient.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) will be estimated using a logistic regression model to assessing the contribution of each polymorphism as a risk factor in predicting suicidal behavior

    Measure is a composite outcome measure consisting of multiple measures Post hoc Bonferroni correction will be employed to correct for multiple testing. Chi- square test will performed to analyze genetic associations

    Between day 1 and day 5 during hospitalization

Study Arms (2)

Inpatient group SNP Genotyping

OTHER

Patients will be recruited from pediatric departments in which 13 -17 y old adolescents are hospitalized for a suicide attempt. Data will be collected through self-administered questionnaires and face to face interview. DNA will be extracted from saliva sample. Individuals will be genotyped at a total of 96 SNPs

Genetic: SNP Genotyping

Control group SNP Genotyping

OTHER

Control subjects are young adults without suicide attempt and without mental disorders

Genetic: SNP genotyping

Interventions

Individuals were genotyped at a total 96 SNP from 15 candidate gene

Inpatient group SNP Genotyping
