Abstract
Melancholia and the Probability and Lethality of Suicide Attempts
Grunebaum M F~~Galfalvy H C~~et al
The authors compared suicide attempts associated with melancholic versus non-melancholic major depression in 377 patients. Controlling for depression severity & other covariates, melancholia at baseline assessment was associated with more serious past suicide attempts & with the probability of suicide attempt during follow-up.
