    A case-control study of alcohol and substance use disorders as risk factors for non-fatal injury
    (OXFORD UNIV PRESS, GREAT CLARENDON ST, OXFORD OX2 6DP, ENGLAND, 2005) Borges, Guilherme; Mondragón, Liliana; Medina-Mora, María Elena; Orozco, Ricardo; Zambrano, Joaquín; Cherpitel, Cheryl; Metropolitan Autonomous Univ Xochimilco, Mexico City, DF, Mexico; guibor@imp.edu.mx
    Aims: While alcohol use is thought to be a major risk factor for both fatal and non-fatal injuries, the association of substance use disorders (alcohol use disorders, AUD and substance use disorders, SUD) with occurrence of injury has not received the same attention. To report the association of AUD and SUD, according to diagnostic and statistics manual of mental disorders-IV (DSM-IV) and international classification of diseases 10 (ICD-10) criteria, and the risk of non-fatal injuries. Methods: A case-control study: Cases included 653 injured patients, 18-65-years-old, who attended one emergency department (ED). Controls included 1131 subjects from a representative sample of residents of Mexico City, of the same age group. Information on drug and alcohol use was obtained by interview using the world mental health version of the composite international diagnostic interview (WMH-CIDI). Results: Among injured patients, the prevalence of substance abuse or dependence within the last 12 months was 12.3% for alcohol and 2.5% for other substances (marijuana, cocaine, tranquilizers, amphetamines, others). Among residents of Mexico City, these prevalences were 1.8 and 0.3%, respectively. Adjusted odds ratios (OR) of injury according to alcohol and substance use were 4.95 (95% confidence interval (CI): 2.87-8.52) for alcohol and 2.58 (0.73-9.17) for other substances. An important level of comorbid alcohol and substance use disorders was also found. Conclusions: Efforts in the ED should be carried out to treat and/or refer patients with alcohol and substance use disorders, and special care should be taken to address comorbid cases.

    A cross-national study on Mexico-US migration, substance use and substance use disorders
    (ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, ELSEVIER HOUSE, BROOKVALE PLAZA, EAST PARK SHANNON, CO, CLARE, 00000, IRELAND, 2011) Borges, Guilherme; Breslau, Joshua; Orozco, Ricardo; Tancredi, Daniel J.; Anderson, Heather; Aguilar-Gaxiola, Sergio; Medina Mora, María-Elena; Inst Nacl Psiquiatria, Dept Invest Epidemiol, Direcc Invest Epidemiol & Psicosociales, Calzada Mexico Xochimilco 101, Mexico City 14370, DF, Mexico.; guibor@imp.edu.mx
    Background: Epidemiologic research has consistently found lower prevalence of alcohol and drug use disorders among Hispanic immigrants to the US than among US-born Hispanics. Recent research has begun to examine how this change occurs in the process of assimilation in the US. We aimed to study immigration. US nativity, and return migration as risk factors for alcohol and drug use among people of Mexican origin in both the US and Mexico. Methods: Data come from nationally representative surveys in the United States (2001-2003; n = 1208) and Mexico (2001-2002; n = 5782). We used discrete time event history models to account for time-varying and time-invariant characteristics. Results: We found no evidence that current Mexican immigrants in the US have higher risk for alcohol or alcohol use disorders than Mexicans living in Mexico, but current immigrants were at higher risk for drug use and drug use disorders. Current Mexican immigrants were at lower risk for drug use and drug disorders than US-born Mexican-Americans. US nativity, regardless of parent nativity, is the main factor associated with increasing use of alcohol and drugs. Among families of migrants and among return migrants we found increased risk for alcohol use, drug use and alcohol and drug use disorders. Evidence of selective migration and return of immigrants with disorders was found regarding alcohol use disorders only. Conclusions: Research efforts that combine populations from sending and receiving countries are needed. This effort will require much more complex research designs that will call for true international collaboration. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Adolescent alcohol use and alcohol use disorders in Mexico City
    (2014) Benjet, Corina; Borges, Guilherme; Méndez, Enrique; Casanova, Leticia; Medina-Mora, María Elena; Department of Epidemiological and Psychosocial Research, National Institute of Psychiatry Ramon de la Fuente; cbenjet@imp.edu.mx
    OBJECTIVE:  To estimate the prevalence, sex, age distribution, and socio-demographic correlates of any alcohol use, consumption patterns, and any alcohol use disorder in a representative sample of Mexican adolescents. METHODS:  3005 youth (52.1% female) aged 12-17 from a stratified multistage area probability sample were representative of adolescents residing in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area. Alcohol use and disorder and their socio-demographic correlates were evaluated with the World Mental Health adolescent version of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. Data were post-stratified to the total Mexico City adolescent population. RESULTS:  59% has used alcohol, this proportion increasing significantly with age. By age 17, 82.5% has used alcohol. Consumption patterns are mostly of low/moderate quantity or infrequent high quantity. Lifetime DSM-IV alcohol use disorder criteria are met by 3.8%, reaching 8.1% for 16-17 years-olds. While males have greater frequency and quantity of drinking, there are no gender differences for alcohol use disorders. Non-school attending youth have twice the odds of a lifetime (OR=2.0, 95% CI=1.13-3.53) and 12-month disorder (OR=2.1, 95% CI=1.10-4.15). Low parental monitoring is associated with 1.72 times the odds of a lifetime disorder (95% CI=1.10-2.68). CONCLUSIONS:  Over a third of 12 year-olds had ever drunk an alcoholic beverage in their lifetime suggesting that the prevention of alcohol use and disorders must begin in late childhood. Initiatives to foment parental monitoring and to prevent, identify, and treat alcohol use problems in non-school attending youth in particular should be a priority for the wellbeing of Mexico City adolescents.

    Alcohol and drug use in suicidal behaviour
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 530 Walnut ST, Philadelphia, PA 19106-3621 USA, 2010) Borges, Guilherme; Rafful Loera, Claudia; Inst Nacl Psiquiatria Ramon de la Fuente, Direcc Invest Epidemiol & Psicosociales, Mexico City 14370, DF, Mexico; guibor@imp.edu.mx
    Purpose of review: To present a summary of estimates of the risk of suicidal behaviour (ideation, plan and attempt) among those with substance use disorders in the general population and risk estimates for those with acute alcohol and drug consumption (intoxication) immediately prior to a suicide attempt. Recent findings: In Mexico and elsewhere studies have emerged on the risk of suicidal behaviour among those with substance use disorders that are not affected by treatment selection bias or by psychiatric comorbidity. In developed and developing groups of nations, alcohol use disorders were associated with increased odds ratio (OR) of ideation (range 2.0-2.5) and attempt (2.6-3.7), whereas drug use disorders were associated with increased risk of ideation (2.3-3.0) and attempt (2.0-4.0). Follow-up studies of general population samples reported an OR for drug use disorders from 1.9 to 3.7 for ideation, and an OR of 3.0 for attempt. Alcohol dependence increased suicide ideation with an OR of 1.5. Those drinking alcohol prior to the suicide attempt had ORs in the range of 6.2-9.6. This increase may have a dose-response relationship. We found no studies providing risk estimates for drug use prior to a suicide attempt. Summary: Current evidence points to a causal role of alcohol and drug use disorders exerting a distal effect on suicidal behaviour. Evidence for the proximal role of alcohol and drug use, as triggers of suicidal behaviour, are still very limited in number, analytical techniques and scope of substances other than alcohol.

    Determinar el riesgo relativo (RR) de lesiones no intencionales y relacionadas con la violencia, asociadas al consumo de alcohol en tres Servicios de Urgencia de América Latina (2001-2002). Material y métodos. Se usó un diseño case-crossover en 447 pacientes de Argentina (A), 489 de Brasil (B) y 455 de México (M). Resultados. El 46% de los casos relacionados a la violencia consumieron alcohol (vs. 11.5% de los no-violentos). El riesgo de una lesión relacionada con la violencia se incrementó con el consumo, y tuvo una RM= 15.0, intervalo de confianza al 95% (IC= 5.8-39.1), pero correspondió a 4.2 (IC= 2.7-6.5) para las lesiones nointencionales. Conclusiones. Mayores cantidades de alcohol tienen consecuencias en el riesgo de desencadenar una lesión, especialmente en lesiones relacionadas con la violencia. Los estimadores del RR que se presentan pueden ser usados como nuevas fuentes para estimadores de la carga de la enfermedad asociada al consumo de alcohol.

    El alcohol como factor de riesgo en accidentes vehiculares y peatonales
    (Instituto Nacional de Psiquiatría Ramón de la Fuente Muñiz, Calz. México-Xochimilco 101, Col. San Lorenzo Huipulco, Tlalpan, México, D.F. Tel. 4160-5000., 2001) Casanova, Leticia; Borges, Guilherme; Mondragón, Liliana; Medina-Mora, Ma. Elena; Cherpitel, Cheryl; Investigadoras del Departamento de Investigaciones en Servicios de Salud. Dirección de Investigaciones Epidemiológicas y Psicosociales. Instituto Nacional de Psiquiatría Ramón de la Fuente
    El consumo de alcohol es un factor de riesgo para la mortalidad por accidentes de vehículos de motor. Sin embargo, son pocos los estudios realizados en México sobre el papel que desempeña el consumo de alcohol en los accidentes vehiculares que no son fatales. El objetivo del estudio fue conocer el riesgo de sufrir un accidente automovilístico bajo los efectos del alcohol por los pacientes captados en las salas de urgencias de tres hospitales (IMSS, ISSSTE y Hospital General) del sector salud de la ciudad de Pachuca, Hgo. Se utilizó un diseño de casos y controles. Los casos son los pacientes que ingresaron a los servicios de urgencias por alguna lesión producida por un accidente automovilístico(n = 112), los controles provienen de una encuesta de hogares definido bajo los criterios censales de las áreas geoestadísticas básicas de la población de residentes de la misma ciudad, que aceptaron participar (n = 920). En ambas muestras participaron hombres y mujeres de 18 a 65 años, a los cuales se les aplicó un cuestionario estandarizado de manera individual cara a cara. Por medio de la entrevista se obtuvo información sobre las características sociodemográficas, el patrón de consumo de alcohol, la frecuencia con la que se embriagaban, su consumo de alcohol 6 horas antes de sufrir el accidente, así como las características del accidente vehicular tales como: el uso del cinturón de seguridad y la posición que ocupaban dentro del vehículo en el momento del accidente. La lectura del alcosensor que proporciona los niveles de alcohol en sangre por medio del aliento, fue aplicado únicamente en las salas de urgencias. Ciento doce personas sufrieron lesiones a consecuencia de un accidente automovilístico. En la encuesta de hogares la muestra fue de 920 personas. Al comparar las características sociodemo-gráficas de ambas muestras, se encontró que 66% de los pacienteseran hombres. En la encuesta de hogares la mayoría eran mujeres (54.8%)(X_=17.41, p=.000). Los sujetos menores de 39 años predominaron en ambas muestras. Al analizar los datos sobre los accidentados ocasionados por vehículos de motor, se encontró que 18.3% de estos accidentes ocurrieron en domingo, y 93.9% de los accidentados manifestaron no haber utilizado el cinturón de seguridad. De acuerdo con la lectura del alcosensor, en 13.4% de los pacientes se encontraron lecturas positivas de alcohol en sangre. El 14.6% de los pacientes aceptó haber consumido alcohol 6 horas antes de sufrir el accidente (odds ratios=8.60 con intervalo de confianza = 4.00 - 18.49). No se encontraron asociaciones con las variables de consumo de alcohol habitual (en los últimos 12 meses), ni con la dependencia del alcohol. Nuestros resultados reflejan la estrecha relación que hay entre el consumo de alcohol y los accidentes de vehículo de motor. El consumo de alcohol antes del accidente es un factor más importante que el consumo habitual de alcohol o la dependencia del alcohol. Desde el punto de vista de la salud pública, lo anterior significa que no sólo los sujetos con trastornos ocasionados por el uso del alcohol están en riesgo de sufrir un accidente, sino todas las personas que atraviesan por episodios de intoxicación.
