We, therefore, aimed to determine whether the risk of suicide differs between these groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study included all PLWH diagnosed with HIV in South Korea between 1 January 2017 and 31 December 2017. Individuals who had never been diagnosed with HIV were selected as controls using 1:10 stratified random sampling, considering age and sex. The heterogeneity of covariates between PLWH and controls was decreased by 1:5 propensity score matching. The endpoint of the study was death by suicide, with follow\u2010up from 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2022. Death that was not ruled as a suicide was categorized as being due to other causes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>After propensity score matching, 22,415 PLWH (mean age 45.9 years; 91% male) and 96,790 controls (mean age 45.8 years; 90.5% male) were included in the final analysis. Within 5 years, 104 (0.5%) of PLWH and 246 (0.3%) of controls died by suicide. Cox regression analysis revealed a 1.84\u2010fold higher risk of suicide among PLWH compared with controls (hazard ratio [HR], 1.84; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.46\u20132.31; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001). Moreover, 836 (3.7%) of 22,415 PLWH and 2882 (3.0%) of 96,790 controls died of other causes within 5 years. Cox regression analysis also revealed a 1.26\u2010fold increase in the risk of mortality due to other causes among PLWH (HR: 1.26; 95% CI, 1.17\u20131.36; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This analysis of a South Korean cohort found higher rates of death due to suicide and other causes among people living with and without HIV.
