BACKGROUND
Frequent cannabis use is associated with adverse health-related outcomes. This study followed up individuals who used cannabis to assess their use and adverse event status.
METHODS
The eligible individuals, recruited in the Iranian Mental Health Survey (IranMHS), were contacted via telephone calls six years after the index interview. The frequency of cannabis use and the occurrence of selected adverse events were recorded. The baseline status was extracted from the index survey. If any individual was inaccessible, his/her vital status was assessed.
FINDINGS
Of the 50 eligible individuals (all male), two had died. Moreover, from among 25 reached participants, 19 reported abstinence from cannabis in the past year, and 18 reported at least one adverse event in the past six years. Violence and imprisonment were the most common events reported.
CONCLUSION
Six years after the index interview, most of the participants abstained from cannabis. Besides, adverse events were common, emphasizing the need for further investigations on larger samples of cannabis users.
背景
频繁使用大麻与不良健康相关后果有关。本研究对使用大麻的个体进行随访，以评估其使用情况和不良事件状态。
方法
在伊朗心理健康调查（IranMHS）中招募的符合条件的个体，在首次访谈六年后通过电话进行联系。记录大麻使用频率和选定不良事件的发生情况。基线状态从首次调查中提取。如果任何个体无法联系到，则评估其生命状态。
结果
在50名符合条件的个体（均为男性）中，有两人死亡。此外，在联系到的25名参与者中，19人报告在过去一年中戒除了大麻，18人报告在过去六年中至少发生过一次不良事件。暴力和监禁是报告的最常见事件。
结论
在首次访谈六年后，大多数参与者戒除了大麻。此外，不良事件很常见，强调需要对更大样本的大麻使用者进行进一步调查。
