很少有初步研究表明COVID-19限制对赌博习惯的影响。我们的目标是评估封锁限制对意大利赌博行为的短期影响。在“迷失在意大利”项目中，对2020年4月27日至5月3日期间登记的6,003名年龄在18-74岁之间的意大利人进行了一项基于网络的横断面研究，并要求他们在封锁前和采访时报告赌博活动。报告任何赌博的参与者的患病率从封锁前的16.3%下降到封锁期间的9.7%。传统赌博从9.9%降至2.4%，在线赌博从9.9%降至8.0%。在赌徒中，赌博的平均时间从每月4.5小时增加到5.1小时。在封锁前的非玩家中，1.1%的人开始玩游戏。在封锁前的玩家中，19.7%的人增加了赌博活动。多变量分析显示，年轻一代（趋势p = 0.001）、当前吸烟者（比值比，OR 1.48）、电子烟使用者（OR 1.63）、加热烟草制品（OR 1.82）、大麻（OR 5.16）、精神药物（OR 3.93）和危险饮酒受试者（OR 1.93）的赌博活动增加。自我报告的低生活质量（OR 1.97），低睡眠量（OR 2.00），抑郁症状（OR 3.06）和焦虑症状（OR 2.93）与锁定期间总赌博活动的增加显著相关。虽然赌博在封锁期间大幅减少，但花在赌博上的时间略有增加。心理健康受损与成瘾行为之间的密切关系要求采取紧急政策，以防止弱势群体增加和发展严重的赌博成瘾。
Few preliminary studies have shown an impact of COVID-19 confinement on gambling habits. We aim to evaluate short-term effects of lockdown restrictions on gambling behaviors in Italy. Within the project Lost in Italy, a web-based cross-sectional study was conducted on a representative sample of 6,003 Italians aged 18–74 years, enrolled during April 27–May 3 2020, and were asked to report gambling activity before the lockdown and at the time of interview. The prevalence of participants reporting any gambling decreased from 16.3% before lockdown to 9.7% during lockdown. Traditional gambling decreased from 9.9 to 2.4% and online gambling from 9.9 to 8.0%. Among gamblers, median time of gambling grew from 4.5 to 5.1 h/month. Among non-players before lockdown, 1.1% started playing. Among players before lockdown, 19.7% increased gambling activity. Multivariate analysis showed an increase in gambling activity in younger generations (p for trend = 0.001), current smokers (odds ratio, OR 1.48), users of electronic cigarettes (OR 1.63), heated tobacco products (OR 1.82), cannabis (OR 5.16), psychotropic drugs (OR 3.93), and subjects having hazardous alcohol drinking (OR 1.93). Self-reported low quality of life (OR 1.97), low sleep quantity (OR 2.00), depressive symptoms (OR 3.06) and anxiety symptoms (OR 2.93) were significantly related to an increase in total gambling activity during lockdown. Although gambling substantially decreased during lockdown, time spent in gambling slightly increased. The strong relationship found between compromised mental health and addictive behaviors calls for urgent policies to prevent vulnerable populations from increasing and developing severe gambling addiction.
