Integrating Forensic Autopsies with Proteomic Profiling for Suicide Risk Assessment: A Comprehensive Review of Literature.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Suicide is a major global public health concern that affects people of all ages, with over 700000 individuals intentionally ending their lives every year. Suicide is a multifactorial event related to multiple risk factors interlocking with each other, among which neurobiological factors are considered to be an objective measure of the incidence of this phenomenon and can be used as a measurable tool for evaluating suicidal tendencies.

Objective

The aim of this study is to thoroughly examine available data and assess candidate proteins as prospective biomarkers for predicting suicides and ascertaining the manner of death in forensic cases.

Methods

An electronic search was conducted on PubMed, Science Direct Scopus, and the Excerpta Medica Database. The syste
