    Notes: The purpose of this paper is to clarify a theoretical framework that has guided us in our research on programs for alcohol and primary prevention in the workplace and to discuss general methodological questions and present some experiences from an ongoing study. The framework is related to general theories about risk factors at work and different perspectives on work environment and health. The methodological questions discussed are an ideal research strategy, some design aspects, and measures of outcome. An empirical study was carried out in Sweden during 1995 to 1997. Four companies representing chemical and manufacturing industries have been studied regarding the implementation of a primary prevention program, and managers, middle managers and workers have been interviewed. We analyze the experiences obtained in planning and carrying out research at workplaces. It is of vital importance to obtain positive feedback from middle managers and trade unions in the implementation of primary prevention programs.

    Sick-leave in women with alcohol dependence or abuse: effects of additional psychiatric disorders (1998)

    Notes: Abstract The study objective was to assess sick-leave among women investigated in a general population survey of alcohol dependence/abuse (ADA). A total of 399 women, selected by stratified random sampling, were interviewed and diagnosed according to DSM-III-R. Data on sick-leave were obtained by linkage with the Social Insurance records. The study found that women with ADA but without other psychiatric disorders had an increased number of annual sick-leave spells – 1.82 compared with 1.47 in the reference population – whereas the mean duration was similar. Women with ADA and other psychiatric disorders had 2.38 annual spells, but also considerably longer spells (mean 16.54 days vs 9.70). Socio-economic differences were large, with the less privileged groups having both more and longer spells. Stepwise multiple regression showed that both ADA and other psychiatric disorders contributed to high sick-leave incidence and duration, as, to a lesser extent, did low education and low social group (the last variable only affected duration of the spells). The frequency of disability pension/long sickness spells was higher in women with ADA (odds ratio of 2.95). We concluded that there is a strong association between ADA and sick-leave, which increases considerably in the presence of additional psychiatric disorders.

    Abuse of and dependence on alcohol in Swedish women: role of education, occupation and family structure (1998)

    Notes: Abstract The present study, which is part of a multipurpose study on alcohol use among women, focuses on the association between education, occupation, family structure and development of alcohol dependence or abuse in women. A total of 316 women were selected by stratified random sampling from all women in a defined part of Gothenburg, Sweden. In a face to face interview, questions were asked about occupation, education, family structure and other variables reflecting socio-economic conditions and relations within the family. As outcome measures we used alcohol dependence and abuse (ADA), diagnosed in a clinical interview according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition-Revised (DSM-III-R). We found that never having been married, or having poor communication with the spouse, as well as having no children at home to take care of, were strongly associated with ADA in women. The role of social class depended on whether education or occupation was used as a measure. Our findings are compatible with the hypothesis that development of alcohol-related problems among women to a large extent is influenced by matters that relate to home and private life.

    Suicides by drug poisoning among the elderly in Sweden 1969–1996 (1999)

    Notes: Abstract   Background: Previous studies have shown an association between the rates of suicide employing certain types of medications and the availability of those drugs. During recent years, prescription patterns of psychoactive drugs commonly used in suicides have undergone some major changes. This study examines whether altered prescription patterns are associated with changes in the rates of drug-related suicides in the elderly. Methods: An ecological study was performed, in which rates of suicide by drug poisoning were related to prescription sales of different psychotropic drugs, derived from the National Prescription Survey (1987–1996). Results: Benzodiazepines were the dominant drug type used by elderly persons who committed suicide by drug poisoning. Rates of suicide using benzodiazepines increased despite decreasing prescription sales. Decreasing tricyclic antidepressant sales and increasing SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) sales were paralleled by decreasing rates of suicides employing antidepressants. The fatality ratio (FR) decreased for the antidepressant group, increased for benzodiazepines and remained more or less unchanged for analgesics among the elderly during the study period. Conclusions: Rates of suicide using benzodiazepines increased in the elderly despite decreasing prescription sales. Benzodiazepines should be prescribed restrictively to this age group.
