Purpose: This study aimed to uncover sexual identity development and investigate the psychiatric risks for bisexual people across mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan by examining ecologically informed factors at the individual, family, and community levels. Methods: An internet-based survey was administered to 685 respondents, from June to August 2021, reached primarily through lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community organizations and professional networks. Participants reported their demographics, identity milestones, and psychiatric symptoms. Results: Significant birth cohort and regional differences were observed regarding bisexual identity milestones. Individuals who were older, transgender and/or nonbinary, and based in Taiwan disclosed their sexual identity more. All respondents reported clinically elevated depression and anxiety symptoms, with a majority experiencing moderately severe depression (60%) and moderate or severe anxiety (80%). Approximately half of respondents contemplated suicide in the past year. Compared with cisgender women, identifying as transgender and nonbinary assigned female at birth was significantly associated with increased depression and higher odds of suicidal ideation in the past year. Enhanced self-esteem was associated with greater well-being and decreased psychiatric symptoms. Experiencing family shame was associated with increased anxiety and depression. At the community level, living in Hong Kong was linked to lower depression and suicidal ideation compared to mainland China. The presence of an LGBT group correlated with improved psychological well-being. Conclusions: Chinese bisexual people face substantial risks for depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation, influenced by factors including self-esteem, transgender and nonbinary gender identity, family dynamics, and community context. Significant birth cohort and regional differences in bisexual identity development exist.

目的:本研究旨在通过研究个人、家庭和社区层面的生态学因素,揭示中国大陆、香港和台湾地区双性恋者的性身份发展,并调查其精神疾病风险。调查方法2021 年 6 月至 8 月,我们通过互联网对 685 名受访者进行了调查,受访者主要是通过女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别者和同性恋社区组织和专业网络联系到的。受访者报告了他们的人口统计学特征、身份里程碑和精神症状。研究结果在双性恋身份里程碑方面,观察到了显著的出生队列和地区差异。年龄较大、跨性别和/或非二元身份、居住在台湾的受访者披露其性身份的情况更多。所有受访者都报告了临床上较严重的抑郁和焦虑症状,其中大多数人有中度严重抑郁(60%)和中度或严重焦虑(80%)。大约一半的受访者在过去一年里曾有过自杀的念头。与顺性别女性相比,在出生时就被认定为跨性别和非二元性别女性的受访者在过去一年中抑郁情绪明显增加,自杀念头出现的几率也更高。自尊心的增强与幸福感的提高和精神症状的减少有关。经历家庭耻辱与焦虑和抑郁增加有关。在社区层面,与中国大陆相比,生活在香港的人抑郁和自杀倾向较低。男女同性恋、双性恋和变性者群体的存在与心理健康的改善相关。结论中国双性恋者面临着抑郁、焦虑和自杀倾向的巨大风险,其影响因素包括自尊、变性和非二元性别认同、家庭动态和社区环境。在双性恋身份发展方面存在着显著的出生队列和地区差异。

Purpose: This study was conducted to understand whether health education materials made specifically for members of sexual and gender minority (SGM) groups play a pivotal role in SGM cancer survivors' care satisfaction and experiences. Methods: We identified 2250 SGM cancer survivors who completed the "OUT: National Cancer Survey," conducted by the National LGBT Cancer Network in 2020-2021, and classified participants by their self-reported satisfaction with overall cancer care. We examined care satisfaction in relation to use of SGM-tailored health education resources and factors surrounding their SGM identities, which may influence their satisfaction, including feelings of safety with care teams. Results: Regardless of satisfaction with overall care, substantial proportions of survivors reported lacking vital health education resources specific to their SGM identities in areas of mental health (69%), physical activity (91%), tobacco use cessation (89%), and alcohol consumption (86%), despite attributing value to these materials. Contextualizing SGM survivor satisfaction with care, it was notable that among SGM survivors who felt safe with members of their care team knowing their SGM identity, only 3% were less than satisfied with their overall cancer care, compared to 38% who felt unsafe. Conclusion: SGM survivors value tailored information and health education resources that incorporate their intersectional identities. More research must be done to elucidate why SGM survivors do not receive these materials, while creating spaces where they feel safe receiving care. Increased delivery of SGM-tailored materials and prioritization of SGM safety in health care may have implications for overall cancer care satisfaction among SGM survivors.

目的:本研究旨在了解专门为性与性别少数群体(SGM)成员制作的健康教育材料是否对 SGM 癌症幸存者的护理满意度和体验起到关键作用。研究方法:我们确定了 2250 名完成 "OUT.全国癌症调查 "的 SGM 癌症幸存者:全国癌症调查 "的 2250 名 SGM 癌症幸存者,并根据他们对癌症护理总体满意度的自我报告对参与者进行了分类。我们研究了与SGM定制健康教育资源使用相关的护理满意度,以及可能影响其满意度的SGM身份相关因素,包括护理团队的安全感。结果:无论对整体护理服务的满意度如何,有相当比例的幸存者表示在心理健康(69%)、体育活动(91%)、戒烟(89%)和饮酒(86%)等方面缺乏针对其 SGM 身份的重要健康教育资源,尽管他们认为这些材料很有价值。从 SGM 幸存者对护理的满意度来看,值得注意的是,在对护理团队成员了解其 SGM 身份感到安全的 SGM 幸存者中,只有 3% 的人对其整体癌症护理不太满意,而感到不安全的人占 38%。结论:SGM 幸存者重视纳入其交叉身份的定制信息和健康教育资源。必须开展更多的研究,以阐明为什么 SGM 幸存者没有收到这些材料,同时创造让他们感到安全的护理空间。在医疗保健中提供更多适合女性同性恋者的材料并优先考虑女性同性恋者的安全,可能会对女性同性恋者癌症护理的总体满意度产生影响。

Purpose: This study explores the sociodemographic, insurance coverage, and substance use differences among transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals currently using hormone therapy (HT) and those who have an interest in future HT use. Methods: We surveyed TGD individuals in Michigan in 2018 to examine sociodemographic, health insurance, and substance use differences between those who had used HT and those who were interested but had never accessed HT using logistic regression models. Results: Respondents (N = 536) were 80.1% White and 18.0% nonbinary. About two-thirds of the participants had ever used HT (65.7%). In multivariate analyses, nonbinary participants were much more likely to be interested in future HT use than transmasculine individuals (odds ratio [OR] = 6.91), yet no significant difference between transmasculine and transfeminine individuals was found. Black participants also had higher odds of interest in future HT use (OR = 8.79). Those who did not know if they had trans-specific insurance coverage (OR = 42.39) and those who had no trans-specific insurance coverage (OR = 4.50) were more likely to be in the future interest group compared with those who reported full trans care coverage. Those with a bachelor's degree were less likely to be in the future interest group than those with some college education or an associate's degree, as were heavy marijuana users. Conclusion: Nonbinary individuals may be interested in HT but lack access, and known health care disparities around race and socioeconomic status may also impact HT access. Standard and transparent insurance coverage for gender-affirming care is sorely needed.

目的:本研究探讨了目前正在使用激素疗法(HT)的跨性别者和性别多元化者(TGD)以及有意在未来使用激素疗法的跨性别者在社会人口学、保险范围和药物使用方面的差异。方法:我们于 2018 年对密歇根州的 TGD 个人进行了调查,利用逻辑回归模型研究了使用过 HT 的人与有兴趣但从未使用过 HT 的人之间在社会人口学、医疗保险和药物使用方面的差异。结果:受访者(N = 536)中 80.1% 为白人,18.0% 为非二元性。约三分之二的受访者曾使用过 HT(65.7%)。在多变量分析中,非二元参与者对未来使用 HT 感兴趣的几率远远高于跨性别者(几率比 [OR] = 6.91),但跨性别者和跨女性者之间没有发现显著差异。黑人参与者对未来使用 HT 感兴趣的几率也更高(OR = 8.79)。那些不知道自己是否有变性保险(OR = 42.39)和没有变性保险(OR = 4.50)的人与那些报告有全面变性护理保险的人相比,更有可能属于未来有兴趣的群体。那些拥有学士学位的人与那些拥有一些大学教育或副学士学位的人相比,更不可能属于未来兴趣小组,重度大麻使用者也是如此。结论非二元个人可能对变性治疗感兴趣,但却缺乏机会,而已知的种族和社会经济地位方面的医疗保健差异也可能影响变性治疗的机会。我们亟需为性别确认护理提供标准、透明的保险保障。

Systemic Barriers to Fertility Preservation for Sexually and Gender Diverse Populations. 性别多元化人群生育力保护的系统性障碍。
IF 3.9 2区 医学 Q1 PUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH Pub Date : 2024-08-01 Epub Date: 2024-04-01 DOI: 10.1089/lgbt.2023.0317

Fertility preservation is the process of collecting and storing oocytes, sperm, or reproductive tissue so that a person may retain their ability to have biologically related children. In instances of infertility caused by medical intervention or an underlying medical condition, this procedure is often sought by affected patient populations. U.S. Title 21 regulations have produced disparities in access, disproportionately restricting services for sexually and gender diverse subpopulations capable of producing sperm. This article examines policies contributing to these disparities, explores how these policies may translate to real-world health care delivery, and proposes policy changes that would increase equitable access to care.

生育力保存是收集和储存卵细胞、精子或生殖组织的过程,目的是保留一个人生育生物相关子女的能力。在因医疗干预或潜在疾病导致不育的情况下,受影响的患者群体通常会寻求这种手术。美国《第 21 章》的规定造成了获取服务方面的不平等,对有精子生成能力的不同性别亚人群的服务限制过多。本文研究了造成这些差异的政策,探讨了这些政策如何转化为现实世界中的医疗服务,并提出了可增加公平获得医疗服务机会的政策变革建议。

Purpose: The "one-liner," commonly used in clinical communications, summarizes a patient's identity, presenting condition, medical history, and clinical findings. Imprecise, inconsistent use of gender and sex information in one-liners threatens the provision of affirming care to transgender, nonbinary, gender-expansive, and intersex patients and may exacerbate health care disparities. This study aimed to generate guidance for communicating gender and sex information in one-liners. Methods: This is an explanatory sequential, equal status mixed methods study of transgender, nonbinary, gender-expansive, and intersex people and clinicians caring for this population. Survey participants rated one-liners on a five-point Likert-type scale of appropriateness, considering affirmation and clinical utility, and provided open-ended comments. We conducted two focus groups with survey respondents to explore survey results and performed a thematic analysis of survey comments and focus group transcripts. Results: Survey respondents included 57 clinicians and 80 nonclinicians. One-liners containing patient pronouns were rated most appropriate, and appropriate patient descriptors included self-described gender identity or gender-neutral terms. In scenarios where patient sex information was not pertinent to the chief concern (CC), one-liners containing no sex information were rated most appropriate. Four themes were identified: inclusion of sex information based on relevance to the CC, accurate patient representation, influence of clinical setting, and risk of harm from inaccurate one-liners. Conclusion: This study generated data to support the appropriate use of gender and sex language in one-liners. Clinicians, educators, and trainees may use these findings to compose one-liners that are affirming and clinically useful for patients of diverse gender and sex identities.

目的:临床沟通中常用的 "单行本 "概括了患者的身份、病情、病史和临床发现。在单行本中不准确、不一致地使用性别和性信息,会威胁到为变性、非二元、性别扩张和双性患者提供平权医疗服务,并可能加剧医疗服务差异。本研究旨在为在单行本中传达性别信息提供指导。方法:这是一项针对变性人、非二元性人、性别开放性人和双性人以及护理这些人群的临床医生的解释性顺序、平等地位混合方法研究。调查参与者在五点李克特量表上对单行本的适当性进行评分,同时考虑到肯定性和临床实用性,并提供了开放式评论。我们与调查对象进行了两次焦点小组讨论,以探讨调查结果,并对调查意见和焦点小组讨论记录进行了主题分析。结果调查对象包括 57 名临床医生和 80 名非临床医生。包含患者代词的单行词语被评为最恰当的词语,恰当的患者描述词包括自我描述的性别认同或性别中性词语。在患者性别信息与主要问题(CC)不相关的情况下,不包含性别信息的单行词语被评为最恰当。研究确定了四个主题:根据与 CC 的相关性纳入性别信息、患者的准确表述、临床环境的影响以及不准确的单行词造成伤害的风险。结论:本研究得出的数据支持在单行词语中适当使用性别和性语言。临床医生、教育工作者和受训人员可以利用这些发现来编写单行语,使其对不同性别和性身份的患者具有肯定性和临床实用性。

Purpose: The human papillomavirus (HPV) causes cervicovaginal, oral, and anogenital cancer, and cervical cancer screening options include HPV testing of a clinician-collected sample. Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people assigned female at birth (AFAB) face many barriers to preventive care, including cancer screening. Self-sampling options may increase access and participation in HPV testing and cancer screening. This study estimated the prevalence of HPV in self-collected cervicovaginal, oral, and anal samples from Midwestern TGD individuals AFAB. Methods: We recruited TGD individuals AFAB for an observational study, mailing them materials to self-collect cervicovaginal, oral, and anal samples at home. We tested samples for high-risk (HR; 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59) and other HPV genotypes (6, 11, 66, 68, 73, 90) using a polymerase chain reaction mass array test. Prevalence ratios for HPV infection at each site as a function of participant characteristics were estimated in log-binomial models. Results: Out of 137 consenting participants, 102 completed sample collection. Among those with valid tests, 8.8% (HR = 6.6%; HPV 16/18 = 3.3%) were positive for oral HPV, 30.5% (HR = 26.8%; HPV 16/18 = 9.7%) for cervicovaginal HPV, and 39.6% (HR = 33.3%; HPV 16/18 = 8.3%) for anal HPV. A larger fraction of oral (71.4%) than anal infections (50.0%) were concordant with a cervicovaginal infection of the same type. Conclusions: We detected HR cervicovaginal, oral, and anal HPV in TGD people AFAB. It is essential that we reduce barriers to cancer screening for TGD populations, such as through the development of a clinically approved self-screening HPV test.

目的:人类乳头瘤病毒(HPV)可导致宫颈阴道癌、口腔癌和肛门癌,宫颈癌筛查方法包括对临床医生采集的样本进行 HPV 检测。出生时即被指派为女性的变性人和性别多元化(TGD)人群在接受预防性护理(包括癌症筛查)时面临许多障碍。自我采样方案可提高 HPV 检测和癌症筛查的可及性和参与度。本研究估算了中西部 TGD 无性恋者自采宫颈阴道、口腔和肛门样本中 HPV 的流行率。方法:我们为一项观察性研究招募了无肛门指诊的 TGD 患者,并向他们邮寄了在家自行采集宫颈阴道、口腔和肛门样本的材料。我们使用聚合酶链式反应质量阵列测试对样本进行了高风险(HR;16、18、31、33、35、39、45、51、52、56、58、59)和其他 HPV 基因型(6、11、66、68、73、90)检测。在对数二项式模型中估算了每个部位的 HPV 感染流行率与参与者特征的函数关系。结果显示在 137 名同意的参与者中,102 人完成了样本采集。在有效检测中,8.8%(HR = 6.6%;HPV 16/18 = 3.3%)口腔 HPV 阳性,30.5%(HR = 26.8%;HPV 16/18 = 9.7%)宫颈阴道 HPV 阳性,39.6%(HR = 33.3%;HPV 16/18 = 8.3%)肛门 HPV 阳性。口腔感染(71.4%)比肛门感染(50.0%)与同类型宫颈阴道感染的比例更高。结论:我们在同性恋、双性恋和变性者中检测到了 HR 宫颈阴道、口腔和肛门 HPV。我们必须减少 TGD 群体癌症筛查的障碍,例如通过开发临床认可的自我筛查 HPV 测试。

Purpose: Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth in North American clinical reports are predominantly White with relatively high socioeconomic status suggesting that access to gender-affirming care is inequitable. This study examined whether socioeconomic and social determinant of health discrepancies exist between a clinical population of TGD youth and surrounding communities. Methods: Patient postal codes were used to link the Ontario Marginalization Index (ON-MARG) to a clinic-based TGD youth cohort (n = 298). Using ON-MARG, each patient was assigned a quintile score from 1 (least marginalized) to 5 (most marginalized) on four marginalization measures. Mean quintile scores were compared to background populations. Census-based Toronto neighborhood-level data on ethnic diversity and educational status were also examined. Neighborhoods were categorized as highly represented, less represented, or unrepresented based on representation in the clinic cohort. One-way analysis of covariance was used to determine associations between neighborhood-level variables and the degree of neighborhood representation. Results: ON-MARG data demonstrated that clinic patients hailed from areas with more individuals having paid employment. Patients from Toronto and surrounding areas came, in general, from communities with fewer recent immigrants and visible minorities. Highly represented Toronto neighborhoods had smaller proportions of visible minorities and immigrants compared with less and unrepresented neighborhoods. Educational status, represented by adults with bachelor's degrees, was lower among unrepresented neighborhoods. Conclusion: TGD youth seen in clinic, particularly those from Toronto, are disproportionally White and socioeconomically advantaged. Further research is needed to better understand the underrepresentation of racialized and low-socioeconomic status youth and to inform strategies to improve access to care.

目的:在北美的临床报告中,变性和性别多元化(TGD)青年主要是白人,社会经济地位相对较高,这表明获得性别确认护理的机会是不公平的。本研究调查了变性和性别多元化青少年临床人群与周边社区之间是否存在社会经济和健康社会决定因素方面的差异。研究方法使用患者邮政编码将安大略省边缘化指数(ON-MARG)与以诊所为基础的 TGD 青少年队列(n = 298)联系起来。利用安大略省边缘化指数(ON-MARG),为每位患者在四项边缘化指标上分配了从 1 分(边缘化程度最低)到 5 分(边缘化程度最高)的五分位数。平均五分法得分与背景人群进行了比较。此外,还对基于人口普查的多伦多社区层面的种族多样性和教育状况数据进行了研究。根据在诊所队列中的代表性,社区被划分为代表性高、代表性低或无代表性。采用单因子协方差分析法确定邻里水平变量与邻里代表性程度之间的关联。结果显示ON-MARG数据显示,诊所患者来自有更多有偿就业者的地区。多伦多及周边地区的患者一般来自新移民和有色人种较少的社区。多伦多代表性强的社区与代表性弱和无代表性的社区相比,明显少数族裔和移民的比例较低。在没有代表的社区中,拥有学士学位的成年人所代表的教育状况较低。结论在诊所就诊的同性恋、双性恋和变性青少年,尤其是来自多伦多的青少年中,白人和社会经济条件优越者占很大比例。需要进一步开展研究,以便更好地了解种族和社会经济地位较低的青少年就诊率偏低的情况,并为改善就诊策略提供依据。

Purpose: In the past 2 years, nearly all 50 states have debated bills seeking to ban minors' access to gender-affirming medical interventions, with many being passed into law. This study documents gender-diverse youths' (GDY) and their caregivers' experiences as they grapple with how such laws impact their families. Methods: Sixteen GDY and 16 caregivers participating in a longitudinal study of the impact of gender-affirming care on GDYs' well-being were interviewed about how the legal and social discourse was impacting them and their families. When interviewed, some participants had completed only the initial intake, others had completed the intake and an initial medical consultation, and a few had recently started gender-affirming hormones. Thematic analysis was used to identify common threads in the youths' and caregivers' experiences. Results: Four main themes were identified: Direct effects of losing access to gender-affirming medical interventions, reflecting how losing access to care would impact well-being; growing hostility toward the gender-diverse community, noting increasing social negativity; personal and social upheaval, reflecting the many aspects of families' lives affected; and galvanization into social action, documenting drives to effect social change. Conclusion: Laws banning gender-affirming medical interventions impact GDY and their families beyond limiting access to medical care. They increase the social stressors, cause social network disruptions, increase hostility toward the gender-diverse community, and lead some GDY and caregivers to engage more politically to protect their community. Gender-affirming health care providers need to recognize how the social and political environment impact GDY and their families to provide high-quality, person-centered care.

目的:在过去两年中,几乎所有 50 个州都对禁止未成年人接受性别确认医疗干预的法案进行了辩论,其中许多法案已被通过成为法律。本研究记录了不同性别青少年(GDY)及其照顾者在应对此类法律如何影响其家庭时的经历。研究方法16 名广东青年和 16 名照顾者参与了一项关于性别确认护理对广东青年福祉影响的纵向研究,他们接受了关于法律和社会言论如何影响他们及其家庭的访谈。在接受访谈时,一些参与者只完成了初步接诊,另一些参与者则完成了接诊和初步医疗咨询,还有一些参与者最近才开始使用性别确认激素。我们采用了主题分析法来找出青少年和照顾者经历中的共同点。结果确定了四大主题:失去性别确认医疗干预的直接影响,反映了失去治疗机会将如何影响福祉;对性别多元化社区的敌意日益增长,反映了社会负面情绪的增加;个人和社会动荡,反映了家庭生活的诸多方面受到影响;激发社会行动,记录了推动社会变革的动力。结论:禁止性别确认医疗干预的法律对广东青年及其家庭的影响不仅限于限制他们获得医疗服务。它们增加了社会压力,导致社会网络混乱,增加了对性别多元化社区的敌意,并导致一些广东青年和护理人员参与更多的政治活动,以保护他们的社区。性别平等医疗服务提供者需要认识到社会和政治环境对广东青年及其家庭的影响,从而提供高质量的、以人为本的医疗服务。

Purpose: The purpose of this analysis is to: 1) describe the most common mental health diagnoses in the emergency department (ED) and inpatient hospital settings among transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth vs. matched controls and 2) evaluate if a gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) or gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) prescription decreased the risk of suicidality within these settings. Methods: Using the PEDSnet dataset (years 2009-2019), TGD youth aged 8-18 (n = 3414, with a median age at last visit of 16.2 [14.4, 17.7] years, were propensity-score matched to controls (n = 13,628, age 16.6 [14.2, 18.3] years). Relative risks of the most common mental health diagnoses within ED and inpatient settings were calculated for TGD youth compared with controls. Recurrent time-to-event analysis was used to examine whether GAHT or GnRHa attenuated the risk of suicidality among subsamples of TGD youth. Results: TGD youth had a higher relative risk (95% confidence interval [CI]) of mental health diagnoses and suicidality in the ED (5.46 [4.71-6.33]) and inpatient settings (6.61 [5.28-8.28]) than matched controls. TGD youth prescribed GAHT had a 43.6% lower risk of suicidality (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.564 [95% CI 0.36-0.89]) compared with those never prescribed GAHT during our study period or before GAHT initiation. TGD youth who were prescribed GnRHa therapy had a nonstatistically significant reduction in ED or inpatient suicidality diagnoses compared with those never prescribed GnRHa (HR = 0.79 [0.47-1.31]). Conclusion: Although risk of mental health diagnoses and suicidality in ED and inpatient settings was high among TGD youth, a GAHT prescription was associated with a significant reduction in suicidality risk.

目的:本分析旨在1)描述变性和性别多元化(TGD)青年与匹配对照组相比,在急诊科(ED)和住院病人中最常见的心理健康诊断;2)评估性别确认激素疗法(GAHT)或促性腺激素释放激素激动剂(GnRHa)处方是否会降低这些情况下的自杀风险。研究方法利用 PEDSnet 数据集(2009-2019 年),将 8-18 岁的 TGD 青少年(n = 3414,最后一次就诊时的中位年龄为 16.2 [14.4, 17.7]岁)与对照组(n = 13628,年龄为 16.6 [14.2, 18.3]岁)进行倾向得分匹配。与对照组相比,计算了TGD青少年在急诊室和住院环境中最常见精神健康诊断的相对风险。采用重复时间到事件分析法研究 GAHT 或 GnRHa 是否会降低 TGD 青少年子样本的自杀风险。结果显示与匹配的对照组相比,TGD 青少年在急诊室(5.46 [4.71-6.33] )和住院环境(6.61 [5.28-8.28] )中被诊断为精神疾病和自杀的相对风险(95% 置信区间 [CI])更高。与研究期间或开始使用 GAHT 之前从未使用过 GAHT 的 TGD 青少年相比,使用 GAHT 的 TGD 青少年的自杀风险降低了 43.6%(危险比 [HR] = 0.564 [95% CI 0.36-0.89])。与从未接受过 GnRHa 治疗的人群相比,接受过 GnRHa 治疗的 TGD 青少年的 ED 或住院自杀诊断率在统计学上有显著下降(HR = 0.79 [0.47-1.31])。结论:尽管TGD青少年在急诊室和住院环境中的精神健康诊断和自杀风险很高,但GAHT处方与自杀风险的显著降低有关。
