| pubmed-article:2034146 | pubmed:abstractText | Official rates of attempted suicide in Perth, in 1971-1972 and 1986-1987, were examined, with the aim of documenting changes in the age and sex distribution of persons who attempted suicide over the 15-year period. In addition a survey of all patients presenting to the Royal Adelaide Hospital between 1986 and 1988 aimed to determine whether or not the official figures accurately reflect the number of presentations for attempted suicide. | lld:pubmed |
