Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a série temporal da mortalidade por suicídio em adultos jovens brasileiros entre os anos de 1997 e 2019. Trata-se de um estudo ecológico, de séries temporais com indivíduos de 20 a 29 anos. Para a análise de tendência foi utilizada a regressão de Prais-Winsten. No período, o coeficiente médio de suicídio em jovens brasileiros foi de 6,36/ 100 mil habitantes, apresentando tendência crescente, tanto o geral, quanto no sexo feminino e masculino. Em relação ao estado civil, houve maior proporção de suicídio entre solteiros (79,02%). Em relação as regiões brasileiras, a Sul apresentou o maior coeficiente médio de mortalidade (9,18/100 mil habitantes), e as regiões Nordeste, Norte e Sudeste mostraram tendência crescente. A maioria dos óbitos ocorrem no domicílio (54,93%) e houve tendência crescente tanto no domicílio, como os estabelecimentos de saúde e outros locais. Conclui-se que a tendência do suicídio em adultos jovens brasileiros foi crescente no período, com maiores proporções entre os solteiros. As regiões brasileiras apresentaram diferentes tendências, e o domicílio, estabelecimentos de saúde e outros locais seguiram uma tendência crescente para as mortes por suicídio em adultos jovens.

Abstract:
This study aimed to analyze the time series of suicide mortality in Brazilian young adults between 1997 and 2019. This is an ecological study of time series with individuals aged 20 to 29 years. For trend analysis, the Prais-Winsten regression was used. In the period, the average suicide coefficient in young Brazilians was 6.36 / 100 thousand inhabitants, showing an increasing tendency, both in general, in females and males. Regarding marital status, there was a higher proportion of suicide among single people (79.02%). In relation to the Brazilian regions, the South presented the highest average mortality coefficient (9. 18/ 100 thousand inhabitants), and the Northeast, North and Southeast regions showed an increasing trend. Most deaths occur at home (54.93%) and there was an increasing trend both in the home, as in health establishments and other places. It is concluded that the suicide tendency in Brazilian young adults was increasing in the period with larger proportions among the single people. Brazilian regions showed different trends, and households, health facilities, and other locations followed an increasing trend toward suicide deaths in young adults.
