Abstract excerpt

Some authors have reported an association of BDNF Val66Met polymorphism with suicidal behavior and/or clinical aspects of suicidal attempts. We evaluated, here, the impact of BDNF Val66Met polymorphism on the clinical characteristics of suicide attempts. The study was conducted on a cohort of 120 consecutive patients who were admitted to the Emergency Hospital of Porto Alegre, Brazil, due to a suicide attempt....
