Scottish in-patient general and psychiatric records were summarised for individuals born 1981 or later who died by suicide between 1991 and 2017 (cases), and matched controls (1:10), for childhood adversity and mental health (broadly defined as psychiatric diagnoses and general hospital admissions for self-harm and substance use).ResultsRecords were extracted for 2477 &#x2018;cases&#x2019; and 24 777 &#x2018;controls&#x2019;; 2106 cases (85%) and 13 589 controls (55%) had lifespan hospitalisations. Mean age at death was 23.7; 75.9% were male. Maltreatment or violence-related childhood adversity codes were recorded for 7.6% cases aged 10&#x2013;17 (160/2106) versus 2.7% controls (371/13 589), odds ratio = 2.9 (95% CI, 2.4&#x2013;3.6); mental health-related admissions were recorded for 21.7% cases (458/2106), versus 4.1% controls (560/13 589), odds ratio = 6.5 (95% CI, 5.7&#x2013;7.4); 80% of mental health admissions were in general hospitals. Using conditional logistic models, we found a dose-response effect of mental health admissions &lt;18y, with highest adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for three or more mental health admissions: aORmale = 8.17 (95% CI, 5.02&#x2013;13.29), aORfemale = 15.08 (95% CI, 8.07&#x2013;28.17). We estimated that each type of childhood adversity multiplied odds of suicide by aORmale = 1.90 (95% CI, 1.64&#x2013;2.21), aORfemale = 2.65 (95% CI, 1.94&#x2013;3.62), and each mental health admission by aORmale = 2.06 (95% CI, 1.81&#x2013;2.34), aORfemale = 1.78 (95% CI, 1.50&#x2013;2.10).ConclusionsOur lifespan study found that experiencing childhood adversity (primarily maltreatment or violence-related admissions) or mental health admissions increased odds of young person suicide, with highest odds for those experiencing both.
