Scientists search for Brain's suicide warning signs

NCT ID NCT02811198

Summary

This study aimed to find biological markers, or signs, that could help predict suicide risk in people with major depression. Researchers used brain scans, thinking tests, and behavioral tasks to measure how people process pain, reward, and attention. They followed 97 adults with depression, some with a history of suicide attempts, for one year to see if these signs were stable over time.
