20140303

An overdose occurs when a person substance overload organ systems of the body and a sharp decline in the ability takes enough one to create life. Some people die from the effects of an overdose, while others manage to survive with or without medical assistance. In a study published in the January 2014 in the journal drug and alcohol dependence was looking for a team of Italian and British researchers to determine, such as the presence of major depression or some other depressive disorder affects the likelihood that a drug user will experience a non-fatal overdose.

The Federal of centers for disease control and prevention (CDC) drug overdose rates in the United States, according to the CDC track latest available statistics (as of 2011) 2.5 million Americans will need emergency room treatment of overdose each year. More than half of all cases (approximately 1.4 million) occur in people with a drug as an illegal substance. Drugs that specifically highlighted include cases for their presence in overdose opioid narcotic analgesic and sedative hypnotics benzodiazepines called.

Accidentally use some overdose on drugs or medication in the prescribed or recreational facilities. Overdose others intentionally tried to commit suicide. More than half of all people who are successfully or unsuccessfully treated for overdosing men or boys. All five cases of overdose occur slightly more than four in adults aged 20 years.

In addition to major depression includes the depressive disorder category of mental illness (dating back to the American Psychiatric Association defined conditions) conditions, the persistent depressive disorder, premenstrual dysphoric disorder and disturbing mood dysregulation disorder called. The category includes also substance/drug-induced depression, a term, which specifically identify cases of depression triggered by short - or long-term ingestion of drugs, alcohol or medication.

All depressive disorders include episodes of "down" tunings, which considerably damage the ability to a sense of well-being or function normally day to day. The intensity and duration of these episodes vary according to both the impact of each specific disease and the manner in which the disease manifests in the individual. Called also periods experience mood affected by a different set of conditions, bipolar disorder, prominent "below". Bipolar disorder in particular bipolar I called disorder, periods of depression produced equally severe in people with major depression diagnosed.

In the study the published drug and alcohol dependence, researchers from five British and Italian institutions used a comprehensive analysis of previous research efforts to check how the presence of a depressive disorder of an individual affects non-fatal overdose risks. Based on seven studies included this analysis in essentially all current published information about a related topic in the United States or Europe until September 2012. Were all in all studies, taking into account 12.019 people live in the United States, Australia, Sweden, Canada and Norway.

The researchers used two measurements to assess the impact of the depression. First compared to the overall rate of non-fatal overdose in depressed people the rate of non-fatal overdose in humans, not by depression affected. Also the chances that any given depressed drug users not fatal overdose is calculated and compared the odds on the chances that each given not depressed drug users not be fatal overdose.

The researchers found that not fatally 7 percent more frequently than individuals not depressed depressed people overdose. While this difference may seem small, it is actually highly statistically significant. The researchers also found that using drugs person compared with one the chances that any given person using depressive drugs a non-fatal overdose Zerstörtung 1.45 to 1 are not depressed.

The authors of the study journal drug and alcohol dependence know not sure why depressed people have higher risks for a non-fatal overdose; Possible factors can use higher doses of the drug in depressed people, and greater opportunities for imported multidrug (a well-known contributor, overdose) in depressed people. Also, note that no one can assume that the same situation applies to overdoses, fatal drug to someone this topic extensively investigated. Nevertheless, they believe that their results show clearly that the link between depressive disorders and non-fatal drug overdose is real. They also believe that the same connection between depressive disorders and fatal drug overdoses is.
