  • Title: [Dexamethasone suppression test repeated after a suicide attempt].
    Author: Wilmotte J, Van Wettere JP, Depauw Y, Charles G.
    Journal: Acta Psychiatr Belg; 1986; 86(3):242-8. PubMed ID: 3751647.
    Abstract:
    The authors performed 3 consecutive DSTs in 54 non-endogenous depressives admitted after a suicide attempt. The DST results are not correlated with the lethality of the suicide attempt. Stress and numerous drug interactions are most probably responsible for the high proportion of DST nonsuppressors among our patients.
