INTRODUCTION
Driving under the influence of cannabis is a significant public health concern that is particularly common in young adults (aged 18-25 years) and has increased in recent years. Vaping has also dramatically increased, particularly among young populations, and is frequently used for cannabis administration among young adults. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the positive association between vaping and cannabis driving under the influence among young adults (aged 18-25 years).
METHODS
This study used the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health and included young adults aged 18-25 years. This study examined past-year cannabis driving under the influence prevalence by past-year vaping at the intersection of past-year cannabis use, after adjusting for other associated factors such as race/ethnicity, sex, employment status, past-year other tobacco use, past-year serious psychological distress, and past-year driving under the influence of alcohol. Data were analyzed in 2022.
RESULTS
Among a sample of 7,860 U.S. individuals aged 18-25 years, 23.8% vaped in the past year, and 9.7% reported past-year cannabis driving under the influence. Past-year vaping was positively associated with past-year cannabis use (adjusted prevalence ratio=2.12; 95% CI=1.91, 2.35). Among those with cannabis use in the past year, past-year vaping was positively associated with past-year cannabis driving under the influence (adjusted prevalence ratio=1.52; 95% CI=1.25, 1.84).
CONCLUSIONS
This study found positive associations between past-year vaping, cannabis use, and cannabis driving under the influence among U.S. young adults, indicating that vaping was positively associated with cannabis use. Vaping was also positively associated with cannabis driving under the influence among those who used cannabis. This preliminary evidence could inform prevention/intervention strategies related to vaping and cannabis driving under the influence.
引言
在年轻人（18-25 岁）中，吸食大麻后驾车是一个严重的公共健康问题，近年来这种情况有所增加。蒸气吸入也急剧增加，特别是在年轻人中，并且经常被用于年轻人吸食大麻。因此，本研究旨在研究蒸气吸入与年轻人（18-25 岁）吸食大麻后驾车之间的正相关关系。
方法
本研究使用了 2020 年全国毒品使用与健康调查，包括年龄在 18-25 岁的年轻人。本研究在调整了其他相关因素（如种族/民族、性别、就业状况、过去一年使用其他烟草、过去一年严重心理困扰和过去一年酒后驾车）后，检查了过去一年吸食大麻后驾车的流行率与过去一年蒸气吸入的交叉点。数据于 2022 年进行分析。
结果
在一个由 7860 名美国 18-25 岁个体组成的样本中，23.8%的人在过去一年中蒸气吸入，9.7%的人报告过去一年吸食大麻后驾车。过去一年的蒸气吸入与过去一年的大麻使用呈正相关（调整后的流行率比=2.12；95%置信区间=1.91，2.35）。在过去一年中使用大麻的人群中，过去一年的蒸气吸入与过去一年吸食大麻后驾车呈正相关（调整后的流行率比=1.52；95%置信区间=1.25，1.84）。
结论
本研究发现，美国年轻人过去一年的蒸气吸入、大麻使用和吸食大麻后驾车之间存在正相关关系，这表明蒸气吸入与大麻使用呈正相关。在使用大麻的人群中，蒸气吸入也与吸食大麻后驾车呈正相关。这初步证据可以为与蒸气吸入和吸食大麻后驾车相关的预防/干预策略提供信息。
