AB Objective: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of theprevalence and variability in suicidality in the general adult populationof Europe between 2008 and 2017.Methods: Studies containing original data on suicidality were identifiedin five electronic databases. Point, 12-month and lifetime prevalenceswere calculated for various types of suicidality. Pooledprevalence rates were calculated using a random effects model.Subgroup analysis and multivariate meta-regression werealso performed.Results: We identified 24 papers containing original data, which provided97 prevalence rates for suicidality. The pooled point prevalencerate was 3.96% (2.37–5.56), pooled 12-month prevalence 2.9%(1.49–4.32), and pooled lifetime prevalence 5.55% (4.31–6.79). Thesubgroup analysis showed that lifetime prevalence figures for wishingto be dead and suicidal ideation were higher in areas with apopulation of less than 3,849 inhabitants and in Eastern Europe.Finally, the multivariate meta-regression showed differences withrespect to the period and type of suicidality, lower and upper agethresholds, population size, and study area.Conclusion: Our data showed that approximately 21% of Europeanindividuals have wished to be dead at some point during their lifetime.Studies like this are necessary to highlight the need for effortsto prevent and intervene in suicidality.
