ABSTRACT

Introducción. La prevalencia del consumo de Cannabis sigue en aumento en el mundo, especialmente, entre adolescentes. Dicho consumo se sobrepone al de cigarrillos y otras sustancias lícitas e ilícitas, y se ha asociado con síntomas depresivos e incremento del riesgo suicida. En el contexto colombiano poco se conoce sobre la relación entre el consumo de Cannabis y el riesgo de suicidio. Objetivo. Evaluar la asociación entre el consumo de Cannabis y el riesgo suicida en adolescentes escolarizados de Santa Marta, Colombia. Materiales y métodos. Se hizo un estudio transversal con una muestra probabilística de estudiantes de media vocacional entre los 13 y los 17 años de edad en colegios oficiales y privados. Se indagó sobre el consumo de Cannabis alguna vez en la vida y se cuantificó el riesgo suicida con la Center for Epidemiologic Studies on Depression Scale. Las puntuaciones superiores a ocho se categorizaron como riesgo suicida elevado. Se estimó la razón de oportunidad (OR) cruda y la ajustada. Resultados. Participaron 1.462 estudiantes. La media para la edad fue de 14,4 años (desviación estándar, DE=0,8) y el 60,3 % correspondía a mujeres. La prevalencia del consumo de Cannabis alguna vez en la vida fue del 11,6 % (IC95% 10,0-13,2) y el 13,3 % (IC95% 11,6-15,0) de los estudiantes presentó riesgo suicida elevado. El consumo de Cannabis se asoció con dicho riesgo ajustado por otras variables (OR=1,88; IC95% 1,23-2,88). Conclusiones. El consumo de Cannabis se asoció con el riesgo suicida elevado en adolescentes escolarizados de Santa Marta, Colombia. Es necesario analizar otras variables que pueden mediar esta asociación.


Introduction: The use of Cannabis continues to increase worldwide, especially among adolescents. This use overlaps with cigarette smoking and other illicit and licit drugs and is associated with depressive symptoms and suicide risk. In our national context, little is known about the relationship between Cannabis use and suicide risk. Objective: To evaluate the association between Cannabis use and elevated suicide risk in high school adolescents in Santa Marta, Colombia. Materials and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study with a probabilistic sample of high school students between 13 and 17 years of age from official and private schools. We analyzed the use of Cannabis some time in life and suicide risk was quantified using the suicide ideation scale designed by the Center for Epidemiological Studies on Depression. Scores greater than eight were categorized as a high suicide risk. The crude and adjusted opportunity ratio (OR) was estimated. Results: A total of 1,462 students participated. Their mean age was 14.4 years (SD=0.8) and 60.3% were women. The lifetime prevalence of Cannabis use was 11.6% (95%CI: 10.0 13.2) and 13.3% of the students reported high suicide risk (95%CI: 11.6-15.0). Cannabis consumption was associated with high suicide risk adjusted by other variables (OR=1.88; 95%CI: 1.23-2.88). Conclusions: Cannabis use was associated with high suicide risk in high school adolescents in Santa Marta, Colombia. Other variables should be studied in order to further examine this association.
