Preventing mortality in adults after release from prison: Advancing global knowledge through an international, individual participant data meta-analysis

前囚犯的死亡风险增加，但对这一人群中可预防死亡的发生率、时间、原因、背景或风险因素的了解还不够。在这个项目中，我们收集了18组前囚犯（总数=1,159,290），并将分析数据，以准确确定哪些前囚犯在什么情况下以及何时面临最大的风险。这一新知识将为政策变化提供信息，以减少这一弱势群体不必要的生命损失。

Ex-prisoners are at increased risk of death, but not enough is known about the incidence, timing, causes, context or risk factors for preventable death in this population. In this project we have compiled 18 cohorts of ex-prisoners (total number=1,159,290) and will analyse the data to determine exactly which ex-prisoners are at the greatest risk from what, and when. This new knowledge will inform policy changes to reduce the unnecessary loss of life in this vulnerable population.
