| dc.description.notes | Aim To assess the short-term temporal relationship between emergency department (ED) attendances for acute alcohol problems and assaults reported to police. Design Cross-sectional time-series analysis. Setting Population of New SouthWales (NSW), Australia between 2003 and 2008. Participants All patients who attended any of 56 large NSW public hospital EDs and had a recorded diagnosis of acute alcohol problems, and all persons involved in assault incidents reported to the NSW Police Force. Measurements Weekly count time-series were formed for ED attendances, assault incidents and persons of interest in assault incidents. Cross-correlation analysis was used to determine any time lag in the relationship between the alcohol and the assault series. Poisson regression was used to assess the magnitude of the relationship. Splines of week controlled for seasonality. Findings There was no time lag found between the ED and police series. A weekly increase of 100 attendances in people aged 15 years and above to EDs for alcohol problems was associated with an 11% [95% confidence interval (CI): 7-15%] increase in the number of incident assaults attended by police. The relationship was similar and statistically significant for domestic and nondomestic assaults and urban areas. The association was stronger between ED attendances and persons of interest aged 15-24 years (27%, 95% CI: 15-41%), 15-24-year-old males (39%, 95% CI: 16-66%) and 15-24-year-old females (66%, 95% CI: 20-129%). Conclusions There is a clear, short-term temporal association between independent population-level markers of excessive alcohol use and violence.<br/ >Electronic Resource Number:<br/ >DOI 10.1111/j.1360-0443.2011.03623.x<br/ >Author's Address:<br/ >Descallar, JCtr Res Evidence Management & Surveillance REMS, Level 2,2-4 Speed St, Liverpool, NSW 2170, AustraliaCtr Res Evidence Management & Surveillance REMS, Level 2,2-4 Speed St, Liverpool, NSW 2170, AustraliaNew S Wales Dept Hlth, Ctr Epidemiol & Res, Sydney, NSW, AustraliaNew S Wales Bur Crime Stat & Res, St James Ctr, Sydney, NSW, AustraliaCanterbury Hosp, Campsie, NSW, Australia<br/ >888ILTimes Cited:1Cited References Count:23 | en |
