To examine socioeconomic characteristics associated with planned methadone maintenance treatment (MMT).
We performed multiple logistic regressions using data from the 1998 Treatment Episode Data Set, which tracks admissions for substance abuse treatment.
MMT was more prevalent among heroin users than nonheroin users. Among heroin users, females, Hispanics, Southerners, the employed, and those who are not homeless or in jail are more likely to be planned to receive MMT. Among nonheroin users, females were less likely to be planned for MMT.
Greater effort may be necessary to extend MMT to vulnerable populations.
研究与计划美沙酮维持治疗(MMT)相关的社会经济特征。
我们使用1998年治疗事件数据集的数据进行了多项逻辑回归分析,该数据集跟踪药物滥用治疗的入院情况。
美沙酮维持治疗在海洛因使用者中比非海洛因使用者中更为普遍。在海洛因使用者中,女性、西班牙裔、南方人、就业者以及那些无家可归或未入狱的人更有可能被计划接受美沙酮维持治疗。在非海洛因使用者中,女性被计划接受美沙酮维持治疗的可能性较小。
可能需要付出更大努力将美沙酮维持治疗扩展到弱势群体。
