NCT ID NCT03793699
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether sleep disorders like insomnia and nightmares are connected to suicide attempts. Researchers compared people who had just attempted suicide with those who had suicidal thoughts but no attempt. The goal was to see if sleep problems might be a trigger. The study was stopped early and included only 24 people, so results are limited.
