Abstract
BACKGROUND Suicide is one of the main external causes of death worldwide. People who have already attempted suicide are at high risk of new suicidal behavior. However, there is a lack of information on the risk factors that facilitate the appearance of reattempts. The aim of this study was to calculate the risk of suicide reattempt in the presence of suicidal history and psychosocial risk factors and to estimate the effect of each individual risk factor. METHODS This systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following the PRISMA-2020 guidelines. Studies on suicide reattempt that measured risk factors were searched from inception to 2022. The risk factors studied were those directly related to suicide history: history of suicide prior to the index attempt, and those that mediate the transition from suicidal ideation to attempt (alcohol or drug misuse, impulsivity, trauma, and non-suicidal self-injury). RESULTS The initial search resulted in 11 905 articles. Of these, 34 articles were selected for this meta-analysis, jointly presenting 52 different effect sizes. The pooled effect size across the risk factors was significant (OR 2.16). Reattempt risk may be increased in presence of any of the following risk factors: previous history, active suicidal ideation, trauma, alcohol misuse, and drug misuse. However, impulsivity, and non-suicidal self-injury did not show a significant effect on reattempt. CONCLUSION Most of the risk factors traditionally associated with suicide are also relevant when talking about suicide reattempts. Knowing the traits that define reattempters can help develop better preventive and intervention plans.

Abstract
Self-harm behavior can begin in early adolescence, with the highest rates of self-harm, between 1990 and 2000 in England, being among adolescents aged 16 to 24 years and there being considerable risk of fatal and non-fatal repetition. Previous systematic reviews have identified risk factors for self-harm in adolescents, but not for the repetition of this behavior. The aim of this review was to synthesise the psychological, psychosocial and sociodemographic risk factors for self-harm repetition in adolescents. By searching four databases, 27 studies were identified and included in the review. Several psychological (e.g., psychiatric morbidity, features of previous self-harm, psychological distress), psychosocial (e.g., alcohol misuse, poor family and peer relationships) and sociodemographic (e.g., age, gender and ethnicity) risk factors were identified for self-harm repetition in adolescents. Several risk factors across all categories for self-harm overlapped with that of self-harm repetition, such as depression, alcohol misuse and female gender. The clinical implications of these findings for practitioners were discussed. As was the case with prior reviews in this area, comparability between studies was limited and a meta-analysis was not possible due to considerable heterogeneity in outcome definitions, measures and methodologies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A suicide attempt (SA) is a major risk factor of recurrent SA in adolescence and may be associated with psychological or social problems in the future. REPEATERS is a longitudinal study which examines the long-term psychosocial outcome of adolescents following attempted suicide. It focuses on the impact of early recurrence (i.e., within the first year of the index SA) - data which is, in fact, poorly documented. METHODS Ten years after the index SA, a self-reporting questionnaire was sent to all adolescents who had attempted suicide and were followed up by the CHRU (Regional University Hospital Centre) de Nancy, France, between 1994 and 2003 and their parents. The purpose of this questionnaire was to assess psychosocial outcomes. Data concerning SA were collected retrospectively. RESULTS After ten years, 146 of the 309 adolescents who had attempted suicide and were participating in the study had responded: 90% lived with a partner and 41% had children. The mean (SD) current emotional life of suicide attempt survivors scored 7.3 (2.3) on a scale of 0 to 10. Compared to the general population of the same age, responders felt more depressed than their peers (29% vs. less than 8% of males and 20% of females), had more suicidal thoughts (14% vs. 5%), and had more SAs (27% vs. 0.3%). Moreover, the risk of recurrence over the ten year period was associated with suicide recurrence in the first year after the index SA (odds ratio [OR]=2.3; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.1-4.9) and with a lower level of education at ten years (OR=0.37; 95% CI=0.19-0.45). CONCLUSIONS Although a favorable outcome was reported ten years after the event for the majority of adolescents who had attempted suicide, some with a lower level of education were nevertheless at increased risk of recurrence and depression. Post-intervention strategies are therefore essential in order to evaluate risk factors which may persist if not taken into consideration.

Abstract
In France, one adolescent out of ten has already attempted suicide. In this population, suicide reattempts are frequent and significantly impact the vital, morbid and functional long-term prognosis. For about fifteen years, surveillance and brief contact intervention systems (SBCIS) have been used to complete the French suicide reattempt prevention arsenal for youth. The relevance of such strategy appears once the mental health service gap observed at this period of life is considered. In addition to prompting better coordination between the different professional stakeholders, the SBCIS help to alleviate the adolescent's help-seeking barriers, especially the ambivalence between conquest of autonomy and need for help. The first results from the French SBCIS dedicated to children and adolescents are encouraging. Although they have to deal with specific challenges, we argue that they relevantly complement and potentiate the already available prevention resources, thus optimizing the whole prevention system for suffering youth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Suicide attempt among adolescents is a public health problem around the world. The risk of recurrence is high: about 30 % of adolescents. New ways to prevent suicide attempt recurrence being developed for adult suicide attempters include maintaining contact with them, and results are encouraging. METHODS/DESIGN The MEDIACONNEX study will be a simple blinded, parallel-group, multicenter randomised controlled trial. It will compare usual care alone to a program based on usual care plus short message service (SMS) provided to adolescents who attempt suicide and who receive treatment in pediatric and adolescent psychiatry units at hospitals in eastern France. Adolescents will be recruited over an 18-month period. The intervention will be based on the SMS, involving personalized and evolving text messages, sent on days 7 to 14 and months 1, 2, 4 and 6 after the SA. The primary endpoint will be the recurrence of an SA, with an assessment during 12 months. Secondary endpoints will be the evolution of 1) social networks, 2) depression and 3) health-related quality of life, with an assessment at inclusion and at 6 months. DISCUSSION This paper describes the design of MEDIACONNEX, which will assess the effectiveness of an SMS program for adolescent suicide attempters on SA recurrence. This program will be easy to reproduce and inexpensive. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (no. NCT02762734 ) on March 2016.
