Abstract

Background: Non-medical use of prescription drugs (NMUPD) is an increasing phenomenon associated with physical and psychological consequences. This study investigated the effects of distinct forms of stress on NMUPD. Methods: Data from 5308 young adult men from the Swiss cohort study on substance use risk factors (C-SURF) were analysed regarding NMUPD of sleeping pills, tranquilizers, opioid analgesics, psychostimulants, and antidepressants. Various forms of stress (discrete, potentially traumatic events, recent and long-lasting social-environmental stressors) during the period preceding the NMUPD assessment were measured. Backward log-binomial regression was performed and risk ratios (RR) were calculated. Results: NMUPD was significantly associated with the cumulative number of potentially traumatic events (e.g. for opioid analgesics, RR = 1.92, p < .001), with problems within the family (e.g. for sleeping pills, RR = 2.45, p < .001), and the peer group (e.g. for tranquilizer use, RR = 2.34, p < .01). Factors describing family functioning in childhood showed very few significant associations. Sexual assault by acquaintances was associated only with use of sleeping pills (RR = 2.91, p p <.01); physical assault by acquaintances was not associated with NMUPD. Physical (e.g. for psychostimulants, RR = 2.01, p < .001) or sexual assaults (e.g. for antidepressants, RR = 4.64, p < .001) perpetrated outside the family context did show associations with several drug categories. Conclusion: NMUPD appears to be more consistently associated with discrete and potentially traumatic events and with recent social-environmental stressors than with long-lasting stressors due to family functioning during childhood and youth. Physical and sexual assaults perpetrated by strangers showed more associations with NMUPD than those perpetrated by a family member.

Introducción: El uso no médico de fármacos recetados (UNMFR) es un fenómeno creciente asociado con consecuencias físicas y psicológicas. Este estudio investigó los efectos de distintas formas de estrés en el UNMFR.Métodos: Se analizaron los datos de 5,308 varones adultos jóvenes del estudio suizo de cohorte sobre los factores de riesgo del uso de sustancias (C-SURF) con respecto a UNMFR de pastillas para dormir, tranquilizantes, analgésicos opioides, psicoestimulantes y antidepresivos. Se midieron diversas formas de estrés (eventos discretos potencialmente traumáticos, estresores socioambientales recientes y duraderos) durante el período anterior a la evaluación del UNMFR. Se realizó una regresión logística- binaria hacia atrás y se calculó el riesgo relativo (RR).Resultados: UNMFR se asoció significativamente con el número acumulativo de eventos potencialmente traumáticos (e.g. para analgésicos opioides, RR = 1.92, p <.001), con problemas dentro de la familia (e.g. para pastillas para dormir RR = 2.45, p <.001). y el grupo de iguales (e.g. para el uso de tranquilizantes RR = 2.34, p <.01). Los factores que describen el funcionamiento familiar en la infancia mostraron escasas relaciones significativas. La agresión sexual por conocidos solo se asoció con el uso de pastillas para dormir (RR = 2.91, p = <. 01) mientras que la agresión física por conocidos no se asoció con UNMFR. La actividad física (e.g. para psicoestimulantes RR = 2.01, p <.001) o agresiones sexuales (e.g, para antidepresivos RR = 4.64, p <.001) perpretados fuera del contexto familiar mostraron asociaciones con varias categorías de fármacos.Conclusión: El UNMFR parece asociarse de forma más consistente con eventos discretos y potencialmente traumáticos y con estresores sociales y ambientales recientes que con factores estresantes de larga duración debidos al funcionamiento familiar durante la infancia y la juventud. Las agresiones físicas y sexuales perpetradas por extraños mostraron más asociaciones con el UNMFR que las cometidas por un miembro de la familia.

背景:处方药的非医疗用途(Non-Medical Use of Prescription Drugs, NMUPD)日益增加,与躯体和心理方面的一系列后果有密切联系。这项研究调查了不同形式的压力对NMUPD的影响。方法:对来自瑞士的物质使用风险因素研究项目(C-SURF)的5308名年轻成年男性的数据进行了分析,所使用药物涉及安眠药、安定药、阿片类镇痛药、精神兴奋药和抗抑郁药的NMUPD。对NMUPD评估前各种形式的压力(分散的,潜在的创伤性事件,最近的和长期的社会环境压力源)进行测量。使用反向对数二项回归(Backward log-binomial regression)进行分析,并计算对应风险比。结果:NMUPD与潜在创伤性事件的累积数量(例如阿片类镇痛药,RR = 1.92,p <.001),与家庭中存在的问题(例如安眠药RR = 2.45,p <.001),和同伴组(例如,镇静剂使用RR = 2.34,p <0.01)呈显著相关。与童年期家庭功能的极少数因素呈现显著相关。来自熟人的性侵犯只与使用安眠药有关(RR = 2.91,p = <.01),而来自熟人的躯体攻击与NMUPD无关。在家庭环境之外发生的的躯体攻击(例如对于精神兴奋剂RR = 2.01,p <.001)或性侵犯(例如对于抗抑郁药RR = 4.64,p <.001)显示与某几类药物使用有关。结论:与儿童和青年期的家庭功能失衡所带来的长期压力源的作用相比,NMUPD似乎与分散的、潜在的创伤事件,以及近期遭遇的社会环境方面的应激源更为稳定的相关。躯体和性方面的侵犯与NMUPD的关系中,来自陌生人的侵犯比来自家人的侵犯与NMUPD相关更高。.
