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
OTHERPatients 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
Control group SNP Genotyping
OTHERControl subjects are young adults without suicide attempt and without mental disorders
Interventions
Individuals were genotyped at a total 96 SNP from 15 candidate gene
