Publication Open Access Gender differences in unidirectional and bidirectional intimate partner violence in addictions(Taylor & Francis, 2019) Fernández-Montalvo, Javier; López-Goñi, José Javier; Arteaga Olleta, Alfonso; Haro Escribano, Begoña; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakBackground: Few studies have analyzed the specific characteristics related to uni/bidirectional intimate partner violence (IPV) in patients with addiction problems. Knowing the specific profiles of these patients would allow the development of effective tailored interventions. Objective: This study assessed gender differences in unidirectional and bidirectional IPV among patients undergoing drug addiction treatment. Method: We sampled 122 patients (91 male and 31 female) who sought treatment in an addiction treatment center, and collected cross-sectional self-reported data on violent behaviors (physical, sexual and psychological violence), sociodemographic factors, distorted thoughts about women and violence, impulsiveness, and anger. Results: Ninety-one percent of participants reported experience of IPV (any type and any direction). Sixty-three percent of participants reported bidirectional violence, which was more common among women (83.9%) than men (56.1%). Unidirectional (perpetration only) IPV was reported in 28.7% of participants, and it was more common among men (34.1%) than women (12.9%). No one reported unidirectional (victimization-only) IPV. When only physical and/or sexual violence was considered, bidirectional violence affected 32.0% of the sample; 23.8% were only victims, and 3.3% were only perpetrators (all of them men). Participants who reported bidirectional violence had higher scores for impulsiveness, anger, and distorted thoughts. Conclusions: Bidirectional IPV is commonly reported among patients seeking treatment for addiction, particularly among women, and should be considered in future research and clinical practice.Publication Open Access Suicidal attempts among patients with substance use disorders who present with suicidal ideation(Elsevier, 2019) López-Goñi, José Javier; Fernández-Montalvo, Javier; Arteaga Olleta, Alfonso; Haro Escribano, Begoña; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakBackground and aims: Patients with addictions have a great risk of suicidal ideation and attempts. Suicidal behaviour is a continuum that begins with ideation and may continue with planning, attempts and suicide completion. Investigating the specific risk characteristics for suicidal attempts in patients with addiction pro- blems who present with suicidal ideation is crucial for developing prevention strategies. The main aims of this study were to determine the prevalence rate of suicide attempts among patients with lifetime suicidal ideation receiving treatment for addiction, and o explore the differential characteristics for suicide ideators with and without suicide attempts. Methods: A sample of 149 patients with suicidal ideation (110 male and 39 female) who sought treatment for addiction in a Spanish clinical centre was assessed. Measurements: Information concerning socio-demographic characteristics, addiction severity, and psycho- pathological symptoms was obtained. Results: In total, 39.6% of the patients had attempted suicide (95% Confidence Interval: 32.1%–47.6%). Although all patients with suicidal behaviours presented a high severity in their addiction, patients with both suicidal ideation and suicide attempts showed a more severe addiction profile and more maladjustment to ev- eryday life than patients with only suicidal ideation. Specifically, three psychopathological variables were re- lated to suicide attempts: worse psychiatric state, previous hospitalization for psychological problems, and history of delirium. Conclusions: According to the results, a systematic screening of suicidal risk in patients seeking treatment for addiction problems is recommended. Addiction treatment centres should develop treatment strategies to prevent suicidal ideators from attempting suicide, mainly in those cases with a worse lifetime psychiatric condition.Publication Open Access Suicidal ideation and attempts among patients with lifetime physical and/or sexual abuse in treatment for substance use disorders(Taylor & Francis, 2019) Fernández-Montalvo, Javier; López-Goñi, José Javier; Arteaga Olleta, Alfonso; Haro Escribano, Begoña; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakBackground: Several studies indicate that lifetime abuse is a relevant risk factor for suicidal ideation and/or attempts. However, little is known about this phenomenon in patients seeking treatment for substance use disorder. The prevalence rate of suicidal ideation and/or suicide attempts was explored among lifetime physically and/or sexually abused patients receiving treatment for drug addiction. The differential characteristics between these patients and those without suicidal behaviours were studied. Method: Three hundred and seventy-five patients were assessed. Socio-demographic characteristics, addiction severity, lifetime abuse, suicidal ideation and attempts, and psychopathological symptoms were explored. Results: Eighty-two patients (21.9%) presented with a history of lifetime abuse and were included in the study (37 men and 45 women). Sixty-two per cent of them presented with lifetime suicidal ideation (12.2% in the last month), and 30.5% with suicide attempts (1.2% in the last month). Patients with suicidal ideation or attempts showed a more severe addiction profile (assessed by the EuropASI) and more psychopathological symptoms (assessed by the SCL-90-R). Conclusion: This study highlights the relationship between previous traumatic experiences and suicidal behaviours. According to these results, systematic screening of suicidal risk in patients seeking treatment in addiction centres with histories of abuse is recommended.Publication Open Access Concienciación, prevención y respuesta (CPR). Programa de prevención del suicido de adolescentes en la Comunidad Foral de Navarra(2016) Haro Escribano, Begoña; Pérez Ciordia, Ignacio; Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientzien FakultateaEl suicidio, entendido como una muerte autoinfligida con intencionalidad, es una de las primeras causas de muerte en jóvenes en los países desarrollados. En la Comunidad Foral de Navarra fue la segunda causa de muerte entre jóvenes de 20 a 44 años, en el periodo del 2009 al 2013. Se sitúa por encima de cualquier patología física o enfermedad. Se ha observado un aumento importante en la incidencia del suicidio de la infancia (10-14 años) a la adolescencia – juventud (15-29 años). Se desarrolla un programa piloto de prevención del suicidio en adolescentes en la Comunidad Foral de Navarra, denominado “Concienciación Prevención y Respuesta” (CPR). El objetivo del programa es reducir los intentos de suicidio y la ideación suicida, mediante el uso de una metodología dinámica y participativa. Además, se quiere conseguir un aumento de habilidades protectoras frente al suicidio y una mejora de las capacidades de ayuda en situaciones de riesgo. Su aplicación tendrá lugar en distintos centros educativos de la red pública. Está dirigido al alumnado de 2º de la ESO. Su implementación se llevará a cabo mediante profesionales y estará dividida en 4 módulos: eliminación del tabú, concienciación, entrenamiento en señales y entrenamiento en factores de protección. Su duración es de 4 meses, y su inicio tendrá lugar al principio de un curso escolar para facilitar la evaluación a medio y largo plazoPublication Open Access Suicidal ideation and attempts in patients who seek treatment for substance use disorder(Elsevier, 2018) López-Goñi, José Javier; Fernández-Montalvo, Javier; Arteaga Olleta, Alfonso; Haro Escribano, Begoña; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakPatients with substance dependence have a great risk of suicidal ideation and attempts. The study of the specific risk characteristics of patients with substance use disorders who present with suicidal ideation and/or attempts becomes a crucial clinical issue in order to develop prevention strategies. The main goals of this study were to determine the prevalence rate of both suicidal ideation and attempts among patients receiving treatment for substance use disorder and to analyse the differential characteristics between these patients with and without suicidal behaviours. A sample of 334 patients (263 men-71 women) who sought treatment for substance use disorder in a Spanish clinical centre was assessed. In total, 43.7% of the patients presented with lifetime suicidal ideation (8.7% in the last month) and 17.7% with suicide attempts (1.5% in the last month). Patients with suicidal ideation or attempts showed a more severe addiction profile (assessed by the EuropASI), and more psychopathological symptoms (assessed by the SCL-90-R). Moreover the rate of suicidal ideation and attempts was significantly higher in inpatients than in outpatients. According to these results, systematic screening of suicidal risk in patients seeking treatment for substance use disorders is recommended, especially in those with a greater addiction severity.
