Have World Trade Center Health Registry (WTCHR) enrollees experienced increased alcohol and drug-related mortality associated with exposures to the events of 9/11/01?
Cases involving death due to alcohol or drugs between 2003 and 2012 in New York City (NYC) were obtained through a match of the Registry with NYC Vital Records. We compared ICD-10-coded deaths where alcohol and/or drug use was the underlying cause of death to deaths from all other causes.
Of 1193 deaths, 66 (5.5%) were alcohol/drug-related. Adjusted odds ratios for dying from alcohol/drug-related causes were significantly elevated for enrollees who were male, age 18 to 44 years, smoked at enrollment, had 9/11-related probable posttraumatic stress disorder, were rescue/recovery workers, or sustained an injury on 9/11/01.
Following a major disaster, alcohol and drug-related mortality may be increased.
世贸中心健康登记处(WTCHR)的参与者是否经历过与 2001 年 9 月 11 日事件接触相关的酒精和药物相关死亡率增加?
通过将登记处与纽约市(NYC)生命记录相匹配,获得了 2003 年至 2012 年期间因酒精或药物导致的死亡案例。我们将 ICD-10 编码的死因中酒精和/或药物使用为根本死因的死亡与所有其他原因导致的死亡进行了比较。
在 1193 例死亡中,有 66 例(5.5%)与酒精/药物有关。对于男性、18 至 44 岁、登记时吸烟、有 9/11 相关的可能创伤后应激障碍、是救援/恢复人员或在 9/11/01 日遭受伤害的参与者,死于酒精/药物相关原因的调整后优势比显著升高。
在发生重大灾难后,酒精和药物相关的死亡率可能会增加。
