The number of publications dealing with measurement of the quality of life and health in the area of drug dependence has increased in recent years. Its main application is as an indicator of the effectiveness of intervention in harm reduction, although there are also comparative and methodological studies.
The literature was reviewed to identify studies on abuse or substance dependence and HRQoL. The bibliographic sources used for the review are PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL and PsycInfo. Additional articles were identified from references to relevant articles.
111 articles were identified. The HRQoL of people who abuse or are dependent on substances is lower than the general population. The presence of physical and psychiatric comorbidity also affects patients dependent on opiates, and substitution programs improve HRQoL.
The measurement of HRQoL in the area of drug dependence is a suitable complement for finding out the deterioration caused by substance use, abuse or dependence. It is also a useful indicator for evaluating therapeutic results in this population.

对文献进行综述以确定关于滥用或物质依赖及健康相关生活质量的研究。用于综述的文献来源有PubMed、EMBASE、CINAHL和PsycInfo。通过相关文章的参考文献确定了其他文章。
共识别出111篇文章。滥用或依赖物质者的健康相关生活质量低于普通人群。身体和精神共病的存在也会影响阿片类药物依赖患者，替代治疗项目可改善健康相关生活质量。
药物依赖领域健康相关生活质量的测量是了解物质使用、滥用或依赖所导致恶化情况的合适补充手段。它也是评估该人群治疗效果的有用指标。
