Using genetics and smartphone data to predict and prevent repeat suicide attempts

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a retrospective, multi-site observational cohort that will merge genomic and metabolic profiling with digital phenotyping and clinical records in people with a lifetime history of suicide attempt. Participants (age 12 and up, with parental consent for minors) will be recruited from outpatient mental health clinics, emergency departments, and short-stay hospital units and will provide genetic samples plus consent for extraction of digital data such as Google Takeout. Investigators will link omics, prescription changes, electronic health record data, and standardized suicide-rating scales (e.g., C-SSRS) to develop predictive algorithms for suicidal behavior. Data quality checks and representativeness will be performed using hospital records and national statistics.
