Description
Eight authors led by Vidmantas Vaiciulis link season and weather marks to suicide counts in Lithuania over two decades. The pool holds near twenty-one and a half thousand cases from 2001 to 2021. A case-cross plan sets each case day next to its own kin days for a fair read. Counts are then read by a wave count model with many marks at once.
Risk ran top in June and July, near a third up on the first month. Heat and sun hours both tied to more cases in the same maths. High air push tied to fewer cases in most splits of the pool. Both sexes and all age bands share the June peak.
