Aims: To assess the extent of empirical studies on suicide in a decade (2011-2020) in Bangladesh. Materials and methods: A literature search was conducted to identify the articles available in #PubMed, PubMed Central, #Scopus, Google Scholar, and BanglaJOL using the search term “suicide in Bangladesh”, “self-harm in Bangladesh”, “poisoning in Bangladesh”, “#suicidal behaviour in Bangladesh”. We included all the #original articles in #full-length format that were #published in the English language, accessible in the full texts, published between 2011 and 2020, and assessing suicidal behaviour in Ban- gladesh. A total of 44 empirical studies were included in this review. Results: Among the 44 studies, 6.8% were qualitative studies, 34.1% applied interview, 31.8% analysed the secondary data. All the studies followed a cross-sectional design, nine studies assessed youth #suicidality, and only one study assessed the #suicidality among the elderly. Studies of the earlier half of the decade explored epidemiological aspects, whereas studies in the last five years assessed the newer topics such as #quality of #media #reporting, #psychological #autopsy study, #perspectives after nonfatal attempt, sociological perspectives, ontological perspectives, masculinity, and suicide, and financial loss due to suicide. About 41% of the papers had a collaboration with the authors of other countries, and about 18.2% of the papers were externally funded either partially or fully. Conclusion: Although newer studies are coming out, suicide is an under-studied public health problem as no nationwide, lon- gitudinal and interventional study has been identified during a decade (2011-2020) in Bangladesh. The proper attention of all the #stakeholders is warranted to improve the scenario. S M Yasir #Arafat 1*, Fahad #Hussain2, Khandakar Md #Jakaria 3, Zarin Tasnim #Itu4, Md.
