This study will quantify the impact of opioid substitution therapy (OST; methadone or buprenorphine) on two important outcomes for opioid dependent prisoners: mortality, particularly in the post-release period; and subsequent criminal activity. The study will have almost 600,000 person-years of follow-up over 22 years, allowing fine grained analyses of disadvantaged subpopulations. The study has clear implications for the health of this population, crime reductions, and cost savings.

这项研究将量化阿片类药物替代疗法（OST;美沙酮或丁丙诺啡）对阿片类药物依赖囚犯的两个重要结果的影响：死亡率，特别是在释放后期间;和随后的犯罪活动。该研究将在22年内对近60万人年进行随访，从而对弱势亚群进行细粒度分析。这项研究对这一人群的健康、减少犯罪和节省成本有明确的意义。
