title: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and suicide: A systematic review.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate suicidality and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), this paper aims to systematically review the literature as an extension of previous reviews.
  
  
  METHODS
  We searched five databases (Ovid MEDLINE, Psychinfo, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science) with two categories of search terms: (1) suicide; suicidal; suicide behavior; suicide attempt; suicidal thought; and (2) ADHD.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The search resulted 26 articles. There is a positive association between ADHD and suicidality in both sexes and in all age groups. Comorbid disorders mediate between suicidality and ADHD.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Recognizing ADHD, comorbid conditions and suicidality is important in prevention.
