RESUMO:

In the World, annually, millions of suicides and parasuicide happen, being a theme recognized as priority of Public Health. The factors for this type of death include biological, psychological and social aspects. Transvestites and transsexuals, exposed to stressful events provoked by bias and violence, may become more prone to develop a certain degree of social and psychological isolation and can contribute for the risk of suicidal ideation. This way, this research aimed to analyze the association between suicidal ideation and sociodemographic, of health-disease, depression, violence and parasuicide aspects in transvestites and transgender. It is about a study with quantitative, transversal approach, with the type being analytical, developed with four Non-Governmental Organizations of transvestites and transsexuals rights in Rio Grande do Norte. The population was composed with 58 subjects. The data gathering occurred in the period of November, 2015 to June, 2016, using three specific instruments: (1) Beck’s Suicidal Ideation Scale; (2) Beck’s Depression Inventory; and (3) Survey of sociodemographic information, of health-disease, violence and parasuicide. The data collected were organized and stores in a database constructed in the software Microsoft Office Excel® 2016 and, later, imported to the Software R version 3.3.1 for testing. For the descriptive analysis, it was considered the absolute and relative frequencies, measures of central and dispersion trend. To verify the variables associations, it was applied the Pearson’s Chi-square test and, when the prerequisites for the test were not attended, it was used Fisher’s Exact Test. A level of significance of 5% was adopted. Regarding ethical questions, the project was approved by the Committee of Ethics in Research on Human Beings of Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, under report nº 1.314.559 from 11/09/2015. In relation to the results, about the sociodemographic characteristics, it prevailed the identity of being a transsexuals (62.1%); young subjects with an age group from 18 to 29 years (69%); single (81%); with an education level lower or equivalent to high school (77.6%); black or brown race (69%); doing prostitution activity (29.3%) or without professional occupation (17.2%); and with a monthly income of up to one minimum wage (44.8%). According to the evaluation of depressive level, these vary between minimum (41.4%). Light (31%), moderate (25.9%) and serious (1.7%). About the aspects of health – disease, 44.8%, said that they used liquid industrial silicon and were under hormonotherapy without medical supervision (67.2%). Regarding the analysis of experiences
in the process of victimization, it was highlighted that 96.6% already had been victims of some type of violence. Among the parasuicide aspects, it is highlighted that 34.5% had at least one previous attempt of suicide. In the verification of suicide ideation’s (SI) presence, it was found that 41.4%, showed active and/or passive SI. One verifies the statistically significant association with SI with the following aspects: depression levels (p=0.0029); school violence (p=0.0122) and rejection from the family due to gender identity (p=0.0103); and parasuicide factors: and parasuicide factors: previous suicide attempt (p=0.0080); and moderate intensity or strong will to die in the last attempt (p=0.0206). There was no statistically significant association between SI and sociodemographic and of health-disease aspects. It was showed that transvestites and transgender that took part on the study had elevated tiers of SI. Therefore, the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Hl) is accepted when affirming that there is an association between SI with depression aspects, violence and parasuicide in a group of transvestites and transgender.
