The purpose of this study was to identify the extent and types of drugs found in alleged drug facilitated sexual assaults (DFSA) in 37 states and 1 territory of the United States. In total, 1000 cases were reviewed. Between the cases that gender was provided (613), most of the victims (91.68%) were woman, mean age of 26.8 years old. Blood and/or urine samples were tested. Twenty-one point six percent of the cases were negative for intoxicating substances. A hundred and one different substances were detected. Overall, ethanol was the most prevalent substance, detected in 30.9% of the cases (309 cases), followed by cannabinoids (THC/THCCOOH/11-OH-THC) (28.8% of cases), amphetamine/methamphetamine (16.5% of cases), cocaine/metabolites (10.4% of cases), and clonazepam/metabolite (7.6% of cases). The mean, median and range concentrations of ethanol in blood (n = 309) were 98.6 mg/dL, 82.0 mg/dL and 9.2-366 mg/dL, respectively. Ethanol and cannabinoids were the most frequent combination found. The absence of alcohol and drugs in some cases may represent delay in collecting samples.
本研究的目的是确定在美国37个州和1个地区涉嫌药物辅助性侵犯（DFSA）案件中发现的药物种类和范围。总共审查了1000起案件。在提供了性别的案件（613起）中，大多数受害者（91.68%）为女性，平均年龄26.8岁。对血液和/或尿液样本进行了检测。21.6%的案件检测出无中毒物质。共检测出101种不同物质。总体而言，乙醇是最常见的物质，在30.9%的案件（309起）中被检测到，其次是大麻素（四氢大麻酚/四氢大麻酚酸/11-羟基四氢大麻酚）（28.8%的案件）、苯丙胺/甲基苯丙胺（16.5%的案件）、可卡因/代谢物（10.4%的案件）以及氯硝西泮/代谢物（7.6%的案件）。血液中乙醇的平均、中位数和浓度范围（n = 309）分别为98.6毫克/分升、82.0毫克/分升和9.2 - 366毫克/分升。乙醇和大麻素是最常见的组合。某些案件中未检测到酒精和药物可能代表样本采集延迟。
