Service variation in baseline variables and prediction of risk in a randomised controlled trial of psychological treatment in repeated parasuicide : the POPMACT Study . The treatment protocol and baseline characteristics of 480 subjects with a history of repeated parasuicide recruited in five centres to a randomised therapeutic trial of manual assisted cognitive-behaviour therapy ( MACT ) and treatment as usual ( TAU ) are described . Most patients had significant anxiety and depressive disturbance with 42 % having a personality disorder . Variation in service policies influenced recruitment , with earlier assessment centres seeing people with more frequent episodes of self-harm and greater parasuicide risk than later ones . Parasuicide risk was also significantly greater in those with their first parasuicide episode at an earlier age and in those with a more recent latest episode .
