abstract="OBJECTIVEs To estimate prevalence rates of suicide attempts and suicidal ideation in individuals with a principal diagnosis of obsessive-compulsive related disorders (OCRDs); 2. to identify predictors of suicide risk among subjects with OCRDs (where available). <br><br>METHODS The systematic review was conducted by searching PubMed from the date of the first available article to December 31, 2018. The search terms [suicide] OR [suicidality] OR [suicide attempts] OR [suicidal ideation] OR [suicidal thoughts] were combined with the following: [BDD] OR [body dysmorphic disorder]; [HD] OR [hoarding disorder]; [trichotillomania] OR [hair pulling disorder]; [excoriation disorder] OR [skin picking disorder]. <br><br>RESULTS In BDD, data concerning lifetime suicide attempts are consistent across studies: mean rate is 21.5% (range 9-30.3%). Mean rate of current suicidal ideation is 37.4% (range 26.5-49.7%) and mean rate of lifetime suicidal ideation is 74.5% (range 53.5-85%). BDD-specific factors such as early onset, severity, poor insight and muscle dysmorphia and comorbid disorders increase the risk of suicide attempts or suicidal ideation. Only 2 studies recruited individuals with DSM-5 HD: suicidality appears to be low, with rates of current suicidal ideation comprised between 5% and 10%, although 19% of individuals attempted suicide during their lifetime. Concerning the grooming disorders, lifetime rates of suicide attempts are low as compared to rates in other OCRDs; approximately 40% of individuals, however, reported lifetime suicidal ideation. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS OCRDs taken together may be at risk for suicide attempts and suicidal ideation independently from comorbid disorders (and specifically independently from comorbid OCD); BDD remains the disorder more strongly associated with an increased risk for suicide, followed by HD and then the grooming disorders. © Copyright by Pacini Editore Srl<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
