A urine screening in fatalities with an unnatural or unknown cause of death (13-40 years of age) was carried out to evaluate the proportion of undetected drug-related cases. Ten out of 160 fatalities without a hint of drug consumption were classified as drug-related according to the definition of the Bundeskriminalamt; 5 of them committed suicide. Moreover, we found a relevant amount of AIDS deaths from the risk group of intravenous drug addicts not registered as drug-related deaths.
对死于非自然或不明原因(年龄在13至40岁之间)的死者进行了尿液筛查,以评估未被发现的与毒品相关案例的比例。在160名毫无吸毒迹象的死者中,根据联邦刑事警察局的定义,有10人被归类为与毒品相关;其中5人自杀。此外,我们发现,来自静脉注射吸毒者风险群体的相当数量的艾滋病死亡案例未被登记为与毒品相关的死亡。
