Crack cocaine outcomes at 4-5 years are reported for 496 drug users recruited from UK treatment programmes. About one-third used crack at intake and at 4-5 years. The results show different outcome profiles. For crack users at intake, use was more than halved at follow-up. Among non-crack-users at intake, about a quarter used crack during follow-up, of whom about two-thirds had never used crack before. Polydrug use and use of other stimulants were associated with using crack. Crack users reported worse acquisitive crime and psychological health outcomes. About 10% reported injecting crack. The reductions in crack use are encouraging, but the onset of crack use among many non-users at intake suggests the need to develop more effective treatment interventions.
报告了从英国治疗项目招募的496名吸毒者4至5年的快克可卡因使用结果。约三分之一的人在入组时和4至5年时使用快克可卡因。结果显示出不同的结果概况。对于入组时使用快克可卡因的人，随访时使用率减半以上。在入组时不使用快克可卡因的人中，约四分之一在随访期间使用了快克可卡因，其中约三分之二以前从未使用过快克可卡因。多药使用和其他兴奋剂的使用与使用快克可卡因有关。使用快克可卡因的人报告 acquisitive 犯罪和心理健康结果较差。约10%的人报告注射过快克可卡因。快克可卡因使用的减少令人鼓舞，但许多入组时不使用者开始使用快克可卡因表明需要制定更有效的治疗干预措施。 （注：“acquisitive crime”直译为“获取型犯罪”，可能是指诸如盗窃、抢劫等以获取财物为目的的犯罪行为，这里保留英文未翻译，因为不确定具体准确的中文术语表述是否符合特定语境含义。）
