Resumen
AZUERO, Andres J. et al. Suicide in the Indigenous Population of Latin America: A Systematic Review. rev.colomb.psiquiatr. [online]. 2017, vol.46, n.4, pp.237-242. ISSN 0034-7450. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rcp.2016.12.002.
Objective:
Due to the high rates of suicide reported among many ethnic minorities, a systematic review is presented on suicide in indigenous populations of Latin America.
Methods:
Systematic review in PubMed, Scopus, PsycNET, SciELO and Scholar Google.
Results:
From an initial total of 1862 articles, 41were included for data extraction. They include 21 from Brazil, 13 from Colombia, 2 from Chile, 1 from Peru, and 4 articles grouped from different countries. Suicide is a public health issue in many communities. Lifestyle changes, industrialisation, environmental degradation, and alcohol have led the indigenous population experiencing what has been described as "cultural death."
