VARIETY The Red & Black | Friday, September i, 2006 | 7A Suicide rate higher in women with implants By TAYLOR RHODES trhodes@randb.com Women with breast implants may have a higher- than-average rate of suicide, according to a recent Canadian study. The large study included more than 40,000 women and found that while the suicide rate may be higher for those with breast implants, health risks such as breast cancer, heart disease and other dis eases and illnesses are lower than average. Doctors feel this correla tion is the result of screening processes applied to the women before they undergo breast augmentation surgery. Dr. Howard Morrison of the Public Health Agency of Canada in Ottawa, agrees. “To some extent, what you’re seeing is a screening effect,” he said in a Reuters article. Women who undergo elec tive surgery are generally in good health, leading to the finding that these women have lower-than-average rates of some illnesses. While these findings show that women who have undergone breast augmentation may have better-than-average health in some ways, they are also 73 percent more likely to commit suicide than those in the general population. Poorer rates of self-esteem and higher rates of psychi atric disorders — including depression — have been found in groups of women with breast implants in previ ous studies, Morrison said. This finding may account for the higher suicide risk observed through the study, which is based on data from 24,558 women who had breast implants between 1974 and 1989, and 15,893 women who had other plastic surgery during the same peri od. The deaths were tracked through 1997 by the researchers. Some at the University were not surprised by this new finding linking breast augmentation to increased suicide rates. “Probably the people who have lower self-esteem are the people who are more like ly to commit suicide, and these are the people who are more likely to get implants in the first place,” said Jane Rowden, a freshman from Stockbridge. “It doesn’t surprise me at all, especially in our society where having a perfect body is essential to so many girls,” Rowden said. “They don’t realize that self confidence has to come from inside you.” Morrison said that while the risk is not dramatic, plas tic surgeons may want to refer those seeking an aug mentation for mental health consultation if they feel that the patient may be at a high risk for psychiatric disorder. DERBY: Calling all lady skaters CAROLINE C. KILGORE | The Red . Black A The Athens Roller Derby women practice from 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Sundays and Wednesdays. ► From Page 1A derby for a few weeks and only suffered some burns and bruises. “It's worth it,” she said. “It’s been nothing life threatening.” Some of the women who haven’t skated since they were kids said it hasn’t been too difficult to get back into it. “Everybody is getting better faster,” said Beverly Babb, an Athens residence who has been in the derby for a few months. However, some are still having problems getting started. Athens resident Katie Selvey said, “I definitely have a long way to go.” But she has time. “Our team is about a year away from competitions,” Hart said. Women interested in being a part of the Athens Roller Derby can go to the group's MySpace page. Future participants also can visit the practice space at Skate-A-Round on Cherokee Road, off Lexington Road, in Athens from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Sundays and Wednesdays for now. Monthly dues are $30, which cover the practice space, T-shirts and the future Web site, but new members can come to their first four practices for free. Everyone should bring his/her own knee and elbow pads, wrist and mouth guards, helmets and skates.
