N2  - After a short review of the literature concerning a possible relationship between lowered levels of serum cholesterol and suicidal behaviour, the results of a controlled group comparison of depressed inpatients who died by violent suicide (5 women, 6 men, ICD-9: 296.1, 300.4, 296.3, DSM-III-R MD; age 34-57 yrs), with a group of non-suicidal depressed patients and backpain patients without any psychiatric symptoms, of evenly matched age and sex, are reported. No significant differences were found between the groups with regard to the amount of serum cholesterol and serum triglyceride.<p />
