酒精注射可能会引起强烈刺激,严重的静脉损伤和额外的风险。什么是鲜为人知的酒精注射点的潜在作用的社会marginalisation.METHODS注射吸毒者(N=215)之间招募2005年10月和2006年12月在布达佩斯,匈牙利从非治疗设置。多变量逻辑回归模型确定了终生酒精注射的相关性。大约四分之一(23%)的人报告曾经注射过酒精,只有3%的人报告在过去30天内注射过酒精。在多变量分析中,六个变量在统计学上显着相关,以往注射酒精:男性性别,无家可归,以往共享炊具或过滤器和注射主要是在公共场所表现出积极的关联,而罗姆人的种族和工作至少部分时间表现出负association.CONCLUSIONSOUR的研究表明,酒精注射是一个罕见的事件比迄今未发现的研究和预防的优先事项。尽管如此,减少伤害服务的提供者应该意识到,注射酒精的情况确实存在,尽管这种情况很少见,特别是在社会边缘化的注射吸毒者中,应该向他们提供有关注射酒精的风险的咨询,并劝阻他们注射酒精。
BACKGROUNDAlcohol injecting may cause intense irritation, serious vein damage, and additional risks. What little is known about alcohol injecting points to the potential role of social marginalisation.METHODSInjecting drug users (N=215) were recruited between October 2005 and December 2006 in Budapest, Hungary from non-treatment settings. Multivariate logistic regression models identified correlates of lifetime alcohol injecting.RESULTSAbout a quarter (23%) reported ever injecting alcohol—only 3% reported injecting alcohol in the past 30 days. In multivariate analysis, six variables were statistically significantly associated with ever injecting alcohol: male gender, being homeless, ever sharing cookers or filters and injecting mostly in public places showed a positive association, whilst Roma ethnicity and working at least part time showed a negative association.CONCLUSIONSOur study suggests that alcohol injecting is more of a rare event than a so far undiscovered research and prevention priority. Still, providers of harm reduction services should be aware that alcohol injecting happens, albeit rarely, especially amongst socially marginalised IDUs, who should be counselled about the risks of and discouraged from alcohol injecting.
