| Resumen en inglés | OBJETIVE To estimate risk and protection factors associated with suicide in Campinas, Brazil, in 2019. METHODS This is a populational case-control study analyzing 83 cases of suicide that occurred in 2019 in Campinas, a Brazilian city with about 1.2 million inhabitants. Controls were composed of 716 inhabitants. An adjusted multiple logistic regression was used. Cases and controls were the dichotomous response variables. Sociodemographic and behavioral variables were the predictor variables. RESULTS The categories which presented higher risk of suicide were: males OR = 5.26 (p < 0.001); people aged 10–29 years OR = 5.88 (p = 0.002); individuals without paid work OR = 3.06 (p = 0.013); individuals presenting problematic use of alcohol OR = 33.12 (p < 0.001) and cocaine 14.59 (p < 0.007); and people with disabilities OR = 3.72 (p < 0.001). Moreover, the perception of fear was associated with reduced suicide risk OR = 0.19 (p = 0.015). Higher district HDI levels also showed a 4% decrease in risk for each 0.01 increase in district HDI levels OR = 0.02 (p = 0.008). CONCLUSIONS This study evidenced the association between sociodemographic and behavioral variables and suicide. It also emphasized the complexity in the dynamics between personal, social, and economic factors to this external cause of death. |
