BACKGROUND: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a chronic, lifelong condition, associated
with increased risk of obesity, cognitive impairment, and suicidal behaviors.
Abdominal obesity and a higher risk of violent suicide attempt (SA) seem to be
shared correlates with older age, BD, and male sex until middle age when
menopause-related female body changes occur. This study aimed at assessing the
role of abdominal obesity and cognition in the violent SA burden of individuals
