    A Comparison Between the Age Patterns and Rates of Suicide in the Islamic Republic of Iran and Australia

    Report EMHJ – Vol. 26 No. 6 – 2020 A comparison between the age patterns and rates of suicide in the Islamic Republic of Iran and Australia John Snowdon,1 Seyed Mehdi Saberi2 and Ehsan Moazen-Zadeh3,4 1Sydney Medical School and Concord Hospital, Sydney, Australia (Correspondence to: John Snowdon: [email protected]). 2Legal Medicine Research Centre, Legal Medicine Organization, Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran. 3Psychiatric Research Centre, Roozbeh Hospital and Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran. 4Institute of Mental Health, Department of Psychiatry, University of British Colum- bia, Vancouver, Canada. Abstract Background: When planning interventions aimed at preventing suicide, it is important to consider how socioeconomic and cultural factors may affect suicide rates. There has been variability in the accuracy of recording suicide deaths, lead- ing to varying levels of underestimation. Social, cultural and religious elements affect whether deaths resulting from suicide are reported as such and those responsible for reporting a death may avoid providing information that would suggest the death was due to suicide. Aims: The aim of this study was to document Iranian suicide patterns in 2006–2010 and 2011–2015, compare them with those in a “Western” country (Australia) and explore whether differences point to factors that affect suicide rates. Methods: Data were obtained from Iranian and Australian national statistics offices. Results: Peak Iranian male suicide rates were in young adulthood. There was a modest increase between the 2 quinquen- nials studied. Australian male rates were much higher, with age peaks in middle age and very late life. From age 30, the female rate was twice as high in Australia, graphs of the age patterns being relatively flat in both countries.

    High Rates of Suicide and Violence in the Lives of Girls and Young Women in Bangladesh: Issues for Feminist Intervention

    social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article High Rates of Suicide and Violence in the Lives of Girls and Young Women in Bangladesh: Issues for Feminist Intervention Christopher Adam Bagley *, Afroze Shahnaz and Padam Simkhada Public Health Institute, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool L32ET, UK; [email protected] (A.S.); [email protected] (P.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] or [email protected]; Tel.: +44-1625-477060 Received: 6 September 2017; Accepted: 3 November 2017; Published: 14 November 2017 Abstract: Deaths by suicide in Bangladesh have an atypical sex ratio, with higher rates in females than in males—a characteristic shared with several countries in Southern Asia. Reasons for this are explored in this paper. An examination of the social structure of Bangladesh suggests that girls and women are subjected to higher rates of sexual and physical violence compared with males, especially in rural and urban slum areas. This violence is often linked to the enforced marriage of young girls to older men. A systematic review of 24 studies on suicide and suicidal behaviors in Bangladesh has shown that suicide death rates are exceptionally high in younger women, at a rate of about 20 per 100,000, more than twice the rate in males aged less than 49. In girls aged 15 to 17, the estimated suicide rate is 14 per 100,000, 50% higher than in males. Because of problems in obtaining systematic data on deaths by suicide, these rates are likely to be underestimates. Extreme poverty and lack of education have been recorded as factors in deaths by suicide, although there are methodological problems in reaching such conclusions.

Asian countries account for approximately 60% of the world’s suicides, but there is a great mismatch in the region between the scale of the problem and the resources available to tackle it. Despite certain commonalities, the continent itself is culturally, economically, and socially diverse. This paper reviews current epidemiologic patterns of suicide, including suicide trends, sociodemographic factors, urban/rural living, suicide methods, sociocultural religious influences, and risk and protective factors in Asia, as well as their implications. The observed epidemiologic distributions of suicides reflect complex interplays among the traditional value/culture system, rapid economic transitions under market globalization, availability/desirability of suicide methods, and sociocultural permission/ prohibitions regarding suicides. In general, compared with Western countries, Asian countries still have a higher average suicide rate, lower male-to-female suicide gender ratio, and higher elderly-to-general-population suicide ratios. The role of mental illness in suicide is not as important as that in Western countries.
