Figure 2. Aalen-Johansen Estimates of Cumulative Incidences of Suicide by Comparing Persons From Date of First Diagnosis of Neurological Disorders to Age-Related and Sex-Matched Comparisonsa.

Figure 2.

aAalen-Johansen estimates were calculated for the outcomes of suicide and other causes of death. Only the results pertaining to suicide are presented. For each disorder, a comparison group consisting of 2 matched persons who were of the same sex, born in the same year, and alive at the date of diagnosis of the matched individual with the examined neurological disorder was selected. For some disorders, only few suicide deaths were observed in the matched comparison group within the first 3 years after date of matching. This is, for instance, seen for Huntington disease where the line for the comparison group fades out.

bThe estimates for Huntington disease are depicted on a 0 to 0.01 scale while the other graphs are depicted on a 0 to 0.005 scale.
