BMC Psychiatry 2010 10 106 http 1471-244X 10 106 BMC Psychiatry RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Spatial distribution of suicide in Queensland Australia Xin Qi 1 Shilu Tong1 Wenbiao Hu2 Abstract Background There has been a lack of investigation into the spatial distribution and clustering of suicide in Australia where the population density is lower than many countries and varies dramatically among urban rural and remote areas. This study aims to examine the spatial distribution of suicide at a Local Governmental Area LGA level and identify the LGAs with a high relative risk of suicide in Queensland Australia using geographical information system GIS techniques. Methods Data on suicide and demographic variables in each LGA between 1999 and 2003 were acquired from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. An age standardised mortality ASM rate for suicide was calculated at the LGA level. GIS techniques were used to examine the geographical difference of suicide across different areas. Results Far north and north-eastern Queensland . Cook and Mornington Shires had the highest suicide incidence in both genders while the south-western areas . Barcoo and Bauhinia Shires had the lowest incidence in both genders. In different age groups 24 years 25 to 44 years 45 to 64 years and 65 years ASM rates of suicide varied with gender at the LGA level. Mornington and six other LGAs with low socioeconomic status in the upper Southeast had significant spatial clusters of high suicide risk. Conclusions There was a notable difference in ASM rates of suicide at the LGA level in Queensland. Some LGAs had significant spatial clusters of high suicide risk. The determinants of the geographical difference of suicide should be addressed in future research. Background Suicide is a major cause of death around the world with about 877 000 suicide deaths each year globally 1 . The World Health Organization has predicted that the suicide rate will steadily increase .
