跌倒是非致命性伤害的最常见原因，也是伤害死亡的主要原因。为了确定跌伤的危险因素，1973年至1977年至1984年期间，对芬兰四个地区20-92岁的19518人进行了检查，并进行了8至11年的跟踪调查，确定了因跌伤入院或死亡的情况。在187,405人年中，有628人因跌倒而受伤。在所有年龄组和性别组中，跌倒受伤的风险显著独立于其他与饮酒有关的因素。在调整了所有其他危险因素后，与戒酒者相比，每月酒精摄入量为100-499克、500-999克和大于或等于1000克的人群的相对危险度(RR)(95%可信区间)分别为1.43(1.13-1.82)、2.32(1.71-3.17)和3.05(2.05-4.55)。体重指数(kg/m2)大于或等于30与老年女性的风险增加有关
Falls are the most common cause of nonfatal injuries and a major cause of injury death. In order to identify risk factors for injuries from falls, 19,518 persons aged 20-92 years from four regions of Finland were examined and followed up from between 1973 and 1977 to 1984 for 8 to 11 years by identifying hospital admissions or deaths due to fall injuries. During 187,405 person-years, 628 injuries from falls were documented. The risk for injuries from falls was significantly and independently of other factors associated with alcohol intake in all age and sex groups. After adjustment for all the other risk determinants, the relative risks (RR) (95% confidence intervals (Cl)) in persons with monthly ethanol intake of 100-499 g, 500-999 g, and greater-than-or-equal-to 1,000 g were 1.43 (1.13-1.82), 2.32 (1.71-3.17), and 3.05 (2.05-4.55), respectively, compared with abstainers. Body mass index (kg/m2) greater-than-or-equal-to 30 was associated with an increased risk among women aged
