| Abstract | BackgroundPreventing suicide is an important clinical and research priority according to the World Health Organization across lifespan. Objective: This study summarizes the prevalence of suicidal ideation, attempts, and suicide deaths among people living with HIV (PLWH) and explores geographic and sex-based differences in metaanalyses.MethodsAn overview of systematic reviews was conducted using CINAHL, Embase, PsycINFO, and PubMed, covering inception to 16th August 2024.AMSTAR 2 evaluated methodological quality, and review overlap was calculated.ResultsTwelve systematic reviews were included, with the highest overlap for suicide attempts in Africa (CCA = 13%). Meta-analyses showed pooled prevalence of suicidal ideation ranging from 13.8 to 22.1% in Africa, 27.1-30.1% in Asia, 33.7% in Europe, 14.3% in North America, and 27.5% in South America. Suicide attempts ranged from 3.7 to 12.5% in Africa, 3.6-11.2% in Asia, and 20.09% in the Americas. Among males, suicidal ideation prevalence was 40% in PLWH, suicide attempts 16.8%, and suicide deaths 1.5% PLWH. Among females, suicidal ideation was 32.8%, suicide attempts 29.0%, and suicide deaths 1.2% in PLWH.ConclusionSuicidal ideation and attempts are prevalent in PLWH, with notable geographic and sex-based differences. |
