title: [Suicide '87. Suicide statistics of the year 1987 with regard to autopsy and inspection].
abstract: The suicides committed during the year 1987 in the catchment of the Institute for Forensic Science at the University of Vienna were analysed in regard to their sexual and seasonal distribution, emphasizing most of all the applied methods. This survey shows impressively the meaning of giving data as complete as possible, especially of including the coroner's inquest among the suicide-statistics, which prove to be rather distorted as long as they are only based on post-mortem data.
