Domestic violence and self-poisoning in Sri Lanka

Piumee Bandara et al.

Summary: This large case-control study examined the association between domestic violence (DV) and self-poisoning in Sri Lanka. The results showed that exposure to at least one type of DV within the previous 12 months was strongly associated with self-poisoning for both men and women. Women were most strongly associated with physical violence, while emotional abuse showed the highest risk for men. The study also found that 38% of self-poisoning cases in women and 22% in men could be attributed to DV.
