Al-Sayegh, H.~~Lowry, J.~~et al.
Little is known about the cause-specific deaths among young suicide attempters from the general population, and the time window for intervention to reduce the elevated rate of death was unclear. We analyzed a nationally representative sample of young adults (17Ð39 years old) who participated in the third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III, 1988Ð1994) and were followed up with vital status through December 31, 2006.
